Broadband Wireless - Rande, a couple of additions to the list you posted on Friday. In the first tier we might add TGNT [Teligent]. They currently provide broadband service in "27 markets comprise more than 434 cities and towns with a combined population of more than 80 million. By year-end, Teligent expects to offer service in 40 markets across the country." With the future goal of 74 markets. Another to consider - for the Diversified Telecoms group - is QWST [Qwest Communications] which will now own 19% of ARTT. Qwest is the No. 4 U.S. long-distance company. Also in this category is #3 phone co. FON [Sprint]. They just launched The Sprint High Speed DSL Network, they announced the purchase of Wireless Holdings, Inc., which owns multi-point, multi-channel distribution services (MMDS) in 7 cities. Sprint announced that it intends to use the MMDS wireless rights to provide multi-megabit data, voice, Internet and video conferencing services through access to Sprint's Integrated On-demand Network. The have also agreed to acquire wireless operators Videotron USA,Transworld Telecommunications, American Telecasting and People's Choice TV (People's Choice TV Corp. is a wireless communications company with wireless transmission capacity in nine major cities located in the southwest and midwest.) "Sprint has been buying wireless cable and other owners of wireless licenses as part of a long-range effort, inelegantly called the Integrated On-Demand Network, to offer customers local, long-distance, wireless phone, data and Internet services all in one package. The wireless licenses would allow Sprint to bypass the Baby Bell local-phone monopolies in some cities and access hard-to-reach mid-sized firms in crowded urban business districts." StockHawk
