Frank,i have been reading numerous posts on this thread and find it very informative.You in particular seem very qualified to give expert advice.I just wondered,if maybe the offering by ADAP might not fit the bill as far as last mile,such as connecting into,say MFNX fiber trunk and transmitting wireless over fixed basis to both the home and on the road.Thank,i would appreciate your opinion .Here is why i ask.. >Adaptive Broadband's AB-Access products offer consumers the power of a high-speed corporate LAN connection from their home, office or wherever business takes them. AB-Access provides wireless broadband adaptivebroadband.com connections at 25 Mbps, enabling high-speed communications within broad service areas for roughly the cost of a cable modem. With AB-Access, users can attach a portable device to their laptops and enjoy the convenience of "anytime, anywhere" access to people and information. Similar to mobile telephones, consumers will be able to purchase AB-Access through retail outlets and order over-the-air activation for immediate service. Adaptive Broadband developed this innovative technology by building a point-to-multipoint radio platform featuring ultra-efficient data transport. This Media Access Control (MAC) layer delivers more bandwidth to more customers per unit of spectrum than any other product on the market. The payoff is a consumer price point from day one. The design also enables service providers to obtain a "mosaic" of licenses — from MMDS to LMDS bands and beyond — and still deliver a consistent set of services.<
