Hi, Frank,

One of the little tech companies that I own, KVH Industries, made two major announcements today.

1) Exclusive rights to market high-speed DirecPC(R) broadband Internet service for mobile customers in the US.
2) Mobile Internet Server

400Kbps 2-way satellite Internet access (plus TV) to anywhere in the US, WHILE MOVING, including up to 100 miles off the coasts! The initial version is targeted at the Marine market, but within 3 months they will also have a low profile (under 3" high) antenna for RVs, Vans and automobiles, and this capability will be included.

The announcement includes 802.11b wireless as well, so mobile vehicles and vessels become wireless LANs so Laptops and other wireless devices will work within a 300' - 1000' radius of the moving vehicle or vessel. This seems pretty powerful. I wanted to see what you and others here think about the technology.
