Progress Report from New York City Build
All Aboard, it's full steam ahead! one contractor putting in the repeaters just go another order to do 1,500 more, and as each one covers a 600' radius, you can do the math on how much more coverage Manhattan will get. I'll bet there are performance bonuses in there to get it done by year end, now that MCI/WCOM likes what they see so far!
New York City is a Wall Street Trading town, and while you can already get real time quotes and trading on alpha-pagers and cell phones, Most will still prefer the full control and bandwidth they will get from a richochet modem system from MetroCom.
From my experience with CableTV system building, I can tell you that Cellular phone companies will be slow to rebuild and upgrade to support cell phone modems beyond the current 19.2 average speed.
(COMTEX) B: WinningInvestments.com to Release August Covered Call Sel B: WinningInvestments.com to Release August Covered Call Selections ATLANTA, Jul 2, 1999 (BUSINESS WIRE via COMTEX) -- WinningInvestments.com, a leading Internet-based stock information service specializing in covered call selections, announced its August strike date calls on Friday. Since its launch on Feb. 10, WinningInvestments.com has posted exceptional results. In March it made profitable calls on 41 out of 43 selections, and in April it was successful on 129 out of 160 calls. It followed up with profitable calls on 174 out of 190 under $25 calls in May. In June, it made profitable calls on 70 out of 77 "13/13 stocks." Covered calls are rapidly becoming a more popular investment strategy as the public has awakened to the solid returns many covered call writers regularly receive. Covered calls provide investors with a way to compound their money each month rather than each year. Many covered call writers earn between 10% and 25% on their money each month, while also gaining downside protection should the stock price fall. Also, instead of buying a stock and waiting for it to move, investors are able to buy a stock and take their profit "up front."
