Jay, A valid question about cost. I will try to find an answer today. The patent subject was exhausted on this board last week. The Company's philosophy is to copyright, not patent software.

Jay. My but this board sure has gone quite. A response from the Company. Hope this helps answer your question about the cost of the major user service. "Dead-Nuts" one-time cost to enable the point-to-point, contemplated below, would be approximately $11,000. However, the individual would not need to continue the recurring expense of the T-1. The individual would only need to purchase a 1,500 baud circuit to have the same through-put equivilant as a T-1. Obviously, it would be recommended that someone would have more than just one T-1 worth of traffic to be profitable. The more appropriate answer, however, is to use NCT's V-Band Network (when available). The user would get a box (whose cost would be aggregated into the monthly cost of service) that would deliver a T-1 to the Internet, local phone service and movies on demand . . . all from a terrestrial wireless connection. Also, it would be accurate to state that the actual cost to the consumer would vary according to the license arrangements that would have been established between the provider and NCT. Art
