Art - Suppose someone is building a new office building or factory, and suppose that there is a requirement to tie in all the computers in the building or factory through either a wired or wireless networking system.

Build in conduit. Wireline is now, and probably always will be, cheaper for really high rate fixed systems - of course 'high rate' changes as time goes by. In any case, the best case for wireless is in an old building with no conduit and a need for a medium rate network. Even in that case there are probably better technologies than Qualcomm's CDMA standards which is targeted at mobile cell systems.
