No shit. I'm just noodlin' here but let's say you just bought a house for a buck and a half, thinking that it is going up 16K a month, with your PITI at 20 a month, and now it ain't and you are plopping down 20K a month and the equity is flat or down. And someone comes up to you and says, "excuse me, Ma'am, but I'm taking a poll here, how do you think that new Bentley Gargonzola Lugainza for 180K fits into your future?" WHAT THE FRIG DO YOU THINK KINDA ANSWER ARE YOU GONNA GET? It is called "real estate poor"; millions in equity and no cash.

Hi Amy, A WiMax demo comes to the Santa Clara Convention Center. wimaxxed.com WiMax network in Santa Clara another sign of things to come October 24, 2005 The next generation of wireless Internet service is a step closer with the opening of a WiMax demonstration network in Santa Clara by TeleCis Wireless Inc. The tiny semiconductor company is using the one-square-mile zone located near the Santa Clara Convention Center to show off its WiMax chip for customers and product designers looking to make their equipment WiMax compatible. "As the networks come out, the products will follow," says David Sumi, vice president of marketing for Santa Clara-based TeleCis. TeleCis claims its single WiMax chip works over a larger area than WiMax industry leader's Intel Corp.'s two-chip setup. However, Intel setup is sharply smaller than TeleCis's "chip," which is currently the size of a standard piece of paper. Mr. Sumi says it will be shrunk to microchip size by March. "We're a little behind everybody else in scheduling but it will be worth the wait," he says. The 7-year-old, 34-person company claims $9 million in funding with another round expected to be announced in the next few weeks, Mr. Sumi says. TeleCis's target is a WiMax demonstration show in Beijing in April where several video game companies and computer manufacterers are expected to unveil WiMax compatible equipment, Mr. Sumi says. That is if the international WiMax Forum, a consortium of companies designing computers and products capable of using Wimax technology, ever comes up with acceptable standards for a WiMax industry.
