Terry, not heard of anything that has "almost unlimited capacity" (would imply tremendous speed). there are at least two companies, one small Japanese company and one US company (Golden Bridge Technologies) that have successfully sent data up to 36mbps wirelessly within a respectable range without significant degredation within that range. these same technologies can be applied to wired. few solely land based wire concentrated technologies can claim this. Both methods use the same spectrum; they all use many of the same variables. nevertheless, generally, the faster the data, the more costly the implimentation.
