Indeed, I was hoping for IDSL as a last resort -- but couldn't find any
providers in the area who had even heard of it, let alone offer it.

It's possible that someone within range has broadband, but my immediate
neighbors (i.e. the ones I know) don't have it.
When I first moved in, I actually had the opposite idea -- getting frac T1
or frame relay service and starting a wireless ISP of sorts (I'm in a very
tightly packed subdivision, so this is perhaps more feasible than it
sounds).
