marvin, here is a great article and link to another about HomeFree,the perfect timing is incredible. They are doing everything right,lets see if they can turn a profit this year.

Your networked household may have an RF product (such as the Proxim Symphony or Diamond HomeFree) wirelessly connecting your notebook with the PC in the den, which may happen to have a high-speed DSL modem. That way you can take your notebook out back and surf the Web by the pool or on the patio. Widespread deployment of DSL service has already begun, and the ability to share a single account among multiple PCs makes the monthly cost more palatable.

Meanwhile, the computers in the home office and the kids' rooms can run phone-line products that plug right into the phone jacks. NDC Communications expects to ship its CableFree product early next year. Diamond Multimedia expects to ship its phone-line product in the first quarter of next year.
Diamond in the rough is about to make its move. The other companies do not have the retail sales channels,and marketing that DIMD does,except maybe SONY.
