Gilder posted on his board a few days ago regarding the breakthrough of a new technology for up-spectrum wireless optics. It now seems he may have been referring to MOT's activities. He wrote, 2/24/2000: "Fiberless optics--using infrared wirelessly-- have been presented at all the Telecosm conferences--once by an Israeli firm, called Jolt, once by Canon (Canonbeam) though they dropped out, and once by Lucent (OpticAir). All these systems were point to point. I have now learned of major breakthroughs in full cellular wireless optical systems operating at many gigabits per second. The people who paid heavily for microwave spectrum should be worried." Anything that transmits gigabits per second wirelessly is something we should contemplate as a threat to HDR. Gilder is no MOT hypester. Thoughts?
