Hi, Elmat - A provocative statement!

"BBFWA, ADSL, Optics will be out of the picture"

Contrasted with the mandate of Tele2 UK to access 60% of the UK population with BBFWA, and Tele2 to install BBFWA throughout the Baltic, and down to Czechoslovakia...

In the UK, Tele2 is responding to pent-up demand unsatisfied by the failed rollout of DSL...

"01 March 2001
Tele2 is re-vamping its wireless Internet access offering with a new service which can burst at up to 512 kilobits per second. Wireless DSL Unlimited is positioned as a DSL alternative and will be rolled out to 40 regions in the U.K. through 2001 claims the company.

"With the current delays in DSL rollout (in the UK), Tele2 is able to offer U.K. businesses a cost-effective alternative. More importantly, it's available now," said a company spokesperson.

The service will provide a better than ADSL option at a premium to BT's DSL pricing, at £50 per month for unlimited symmetrical Internet access."

I can understand where one's background might give them a different perspective, but are you expressing a wish, or a foreseeable future with a logical explanation?

Your statement flies in the face of many forecasts I have read on the future of BBFWA. BTW, The BBFWA access to which I'm referring is coded OFDM, not conventional FW.

Additionally, I would have thought the failure of DSL to gain sufficient traction leaves an unsatisfied market which BBFWA can quickly and cheaply occupy.

Why is Elmat saying everyone else is wrong?

Best regards,

Jim
