<<Metricom's service has some potential weaknesses, too. It is not everywhere, and if you take your laptop outside the range of the transmitters, you lose your connection. >> Mcom should offer to place the transmitters on people's homes. A wireless receiver and transmitter on each chimney could greatly expand the area. Mcom could provide for lower fees if you allow the box on your home. When you consider the potential of hooking up to numerous wireless devices in your home it seems like a good promotion. We can still get the 75/per from the core client base of business customers. Home use would be gravy. Most execs would be living in the burbs anyway! O
