Richochet is a localized wireless ISP (Internet Service Provider)
Generally Im assuming right now wherever Revolv is involved there is a potential application for Infowave. Metricom's a possibility however they use Radio technology for wireless (they are a part of the fixed wireless market). To be honest Im unsure of how the Revolv service actually might apply to Metricom. Infowave etc are part of the cellular data networks, the Metricom system is a different system all together. I need to do more reading on this one. Basically I think the metricom system only works in a fixed/predetermined area or radius around their system, one couldn't say fly across the country or go far away. The news release states it uses their mobile data access network so there mat be some potential.
