Bernard, I have been following your comments closely, and value your opinions. The question in my mind is - Will the Clarity/CSCO's VOFDM system products collide with Philips/Wi-Lan WOFDM system products ? And,if so, in what marketplace would this collision occur ? I assume that you are already aware of Wi-Lans recently extended agreement with Telia, and wonder if you think that Clarity/Cisco would create a threat to that agreement as well. Also, Aironet appears to be quite successful with their IEE 811 products, but they are basically against a 11 megabit/second brick wall at this time. I have assumed that they would logically progress toward Wi-Lan's recently introduced 30 Megabit/second Access Unit when they feel the need to scale that brick wall. Or do you feel that they would prefer to use the Clarity/Cisco product instead ? Best Regards, Mardy Marshall

Bernard, and Thread, First of all I'd like to say thanks for keeping a level of diligence and perspective on these boards when it comes to matters wireless nouveau. I sincerely appreciate it as I attempt to sort out the dizzying array of new modulation and startup spins that have been proliferating in this space, of late. The latter is not intended to cast a cloud necessarily on any individual startup or anything like that. It was meant as a general statement. Having said that, we can sure use some help over in the FCTF from you and the others here, especially in wireless affairs, from time to time. Stop by, drop off a few packets of wisdom, and have a cup of coffee with us while you're at it. You collective presence would be most welcome, indeed. Regards, Frank Coluccio
