No it's members only, as are most every IEEE pub that I know of. They're missing the boat not letting any Joe or Jane download a pdf for a couple bucks. Incredibly, this organization that's supposed to represent the pinnacle of technology has a fiasco of a website. Too many passwords, and mixes of pre-assigned and self-assigned fields. Seems there's a password for every page. [sidebar] Oh I long for the day when security is mainstream!!!!!! P.S. I am ABSOLUTELY AMAZED this area has escaped Gilder's critiques. He could get a year's worth of companies just from this area. [end sidebar] For members, it can be accessed here: comsoc.org I tried looking for a reprint from some of the companies invloved in the articles but no luck. Sorry. (those would be Axsun technologies and Photonex--know anything about them?) It's funny, in a similar light as my gripes about the IEEE site, the cablelabs site, which is supposed to represent the pinnacle of high speed access, is generally pathetically slow and unreliable, with incoherent linkages. I hear the same things about the Gilder site, and he's suppose to be the pinnacle of....something? What's wrong with this picture? I'll tell 'ya: it's like Rembrandt using crayons on tracing paper.
