WN - My latest posts are tech orientated. Its not just cdma or the Q that is threatened by this technology it is the wireless carriers and the fixed line carriers. Nice juicy leased line costs are going to plummet with this technology. Well it might not yet be deployable or it might have faults and I have listed a couple of other posts on this earlier today. But 802.11 works and I use it and it is fabulous. Sure ot would be nice to have 800Mbps in my Samsung I330 but with time passing and now year after year withou this dream appearing other technology has now appeared ie 802.11. The number of places that I would use DV-DO has been reduced albeit at the moment not by many but some. Be it at airport lounges, train stations, SBUX, MacD, and more and more buildings. slowly and inexorably there are more and mroe places where I can get online with 802.11. In two years time there will be even more and if 802.16 does anything near what the articles say it can then the numberof places where I can get 802.11 is going to be increased geometrically. And best of all its going to get cheaper or put another way the wireless serivce provides want ot increase ARPU. Personally I and I suspect many others of us want to do exactly the oppposite. 802.11 and 802.16 makes that possible. Best, L
