Duker - Re: "I think what this says is that this circumvents the "local loop" bottleneck, because each house acts as sort of a "repeater" to the next house. Does that sound right??" It sounds something like that. The premise is a wide deployment of rooftop transmitters/receivers that all inter-link providing a "hopping" link from one rooftop to another - eventually to the user on one end and a base station transmitter (for the ISP) at the other end. I'm sure the homeless in San Francisco will protest this as discrimination - since they don't have their own roofs. Paul
