Nope, not a threat. You've exposed your ignorance of the necessity for a microcellular architecture in order to maximize frequency reuse and provide a consistent high data rate for a large number of users simultaneously. This is required in order to support a truly broadband network. The alternatives you quote will only be useful for snippets of data, such as text email or quick quotes. Nothing more. There is a large market for a mobile broadband experience. Only the Metricom solution will provide it. Glad to see you did a little homework. Go back and do some more. Enjoy!

Goldfinger, care to elaborate? LOL! You are really showing your ignorance now. Read the Adventis Report - then come back and explain to us all why it's superior to MCOM's MCDN architecture. Sir, you'd better think about going long soon.
