Abstract
Distinguishing between smart solutions and sustainability is always a problem when we discuss about the vision of “Smart Cities”. This chapter is written and thoughtfully designed to bring into reader's consideration new dimension of smart cities and how to start thinking about them. The chapter promotes the smart city vision and presents smart solutions, with the revolution of technology we witness, as building blocks of sustainability that required to create and sustain smart city visions and goals. We do also present a customized smart solution called “Hybrid radio” technology to bridge the gap of the digital divide problem which we have not only in developing countries but also the rural areas of developed countries.
