The typical Metricom defense, companies like Sprint (which are successful) don't know what they are doing but Metricom (which has almost no customers and is running out of money) does know what it is doing. Up is down, right is wrong, etc. Every company has some unhappy customers, especially if you are a company adding more than one million new customers every three months - something Metricom knows nothing about! I just picked Sprint as an example. The same type of competition (a real issue) is also coming from Verizon, AT&T, and Voicestream. Again, my opinion is that Metricom is trying to convince people that there will be no competition and that is not 100% truthful. I'll let other people try to figure out why, with "no competition," there are also almost no customers. Good luck.
