Thanks William, and yes he is a hell of a guy as you can get some answers here.
My biggest problem was trying to figure out why they have not yet been bought out. I'm sure there are many folks in the business who know more than I do and if WIN has what it takes, it should have been picked up a while back. Maybe with the 30Mbps unit it woke them up, but when I see 2 majors pooling US$1Billion to develop what WIN has, well, one has to wonder why?
Perhaps it's limitation in the technology such as modem speed, size of unit, bandwith licensing, traffic problems, etc. etc., which we will find out eventually.
WIN's story is very exciting as I'm sure there is a huge market for true mobility which could include voice, WEB and streaming video/TV. Maybe the Chairman could address these also?? - regards - denis
