I don't get DD from Yahoo message boards. In fact, I never read Yahoo message boards. No, I'm just speculating that the investors who have read about fixed laser wireless may be concerned about its competitive features with respect to directional fixed RF. ADAP's technology needs fixed directional antennas. Terabeam's technology needs fixed optical receivers and transmitters (telescopes). So what's left for a difference? Terabeam's 1.55 micron wavelength is 100's of times more "broad" than ADAP's RF broadband. The only problem with Terabeam's technology is that it can be blocked more easily. But they have apparently partially overcome this by using beam expanders.

Don't take my opinion as the final say on this matter. I haven't read it anywhere, spoken to anyone about it or communicated it in any other way than right here and now. You asked a question and I offered my opinion. These are just my educated thoughts.

I like ADAP and have been recommending it for over 2 years, since it was California Microwave. I made over $1 million last year shorting stocks. So I take my long picks very seriously.
