Wifi would have too many people on at the same time, sharing the same frequencies. That would reduce performance drastically. Wireless shares everything with everyone, and there's just not that many frequencies allocated to wifi to allow "everyone" on at the same time.
Fiber has higher bandwidth, is immune to any interference or hacking. That's why it's used to backbone major networks. As for home use, most effective is to use existing connections to homes, like cable, DSL or the proposed BPL (broadband over power lines - probably won't work well anyway)
The cell phone companies have more bandwidth than regular Wifi, but being companies, they want to make a profit. That, along with overloading the cell network gives reasons why that will be slow to expand to everyone - it would cost too much. Also, they have limited frequencies to work with too...

Actually there a few years ago there were a number of cities that announced plans to wifi the city. They probably would have needed a fiber cable to implement something that big. To date I don't think any of them could figure out how to finance it and I don't think any such network ever went up.

severe velocity internet comprises you in 2 flavors, DSL and cable. From there, you will choose a instant router. The router manages all the desktops connecting to it, and that all of them share that top velocity connection. with a view to connect with that router, your notebook would choose a instant adapter. This instant adapter enables you to connect with that router, or different instant routers which incorporate a wireless hotspot at Starbucks, McDonalds, and so on. A dialup card is a card the place you plug a telephone line into your notebook, and your popular telephone line. the fee is plenty slower. wish that enables.
