Here is an interesting story. 1999 starts off where 1998 ended. I believe 1999 will see a complete restructuring of the ISP environment in the US. Consolidation and new technology will be KING. Local ISPs providers are seeing folks make a lot of money in running internet companies, but they are not sharing in the fun. These entrepreneurs will be looking for creative ways to get on the public market. The USRF tech is a good way to differentiate your ISP and good ones can be bought out by USRF. Don't look for these little guys to just sit back and let AOL, MSPG, GEEK and RMII rule the roost. IMO this bode wells for USRF. Do your own thinking and DD. I have been long USRF for the last year and will be for most of 1999.
