Exactly.

"[This is not of the same subject?] In a similar vein, AT&T plans to offer fixed wireless as a way for cable-Internet
subscribers to create wireless home networks. Using an ``enhanced personal base station,' AT&T customers will be able to share multiple voice and data lines over a single cable connection. The service will be available to 1.5 million households in three major U.S. markets by the end of the year, says Dave Gibbons, the head of AT&T's fixed wireless unit. He declined to identify which cities will get the service first."


And...

"Another market for fixed wireless, which may ultimately prove more lucrative than rural buildouts, is for extending cable and DSL service within apartment buildings or office complexes. A wireless base station connected to a DSL or cable access device can beam Internet data and voice calls throughout such locations.

``A large apartment building could offer broadband access as an amenity,' with such a configuration less expensively than by running cable or DSL to every unit, says Gartner Group's Egan. Service providers such as Winstar are already attacking this market, he says."
