Don't get too far ahead of MCOM the NYC deployment is a good year away. they are putting in about 200 repeaters per month for about 3,000 total build. between installation and testing in the concrete canyons of New York, you won't be able to use your Richoche Modem till well into the next Milleneum. Even the Airport Builds are just in the right of way stage, and have not be installed yet as their press release would imply. The downtown Brooklyn area has them already, but it's a test system that will need to be expanded to be practical. Truth be told, in New York City, right of way is half the battle, and I'm impressed they even got this far. I can assure you that once the system is up, Wall Street will embrace it's usage, I'm just not sure what other cellular technologies will have matured by then to compete. P.S. Newark Airport is in New Jersey.
