One of those companies got some nice spectrum, licensed. 2.1GHz I think.

Openrange is the name I was trying to remember. Any idea what happened with them? I seem to remember they shut down suddenly and left customers without service. I don’t remember them getting bought out.

I think at least one of them used WiMAX equipment that was somewhat popular with apartment dwellers because they had indoor modems. I also seem to remember equipment vendors left holding the bag, and surplus equipment showing up on eBay. I think one of them approached us about M&A but they were offering stock claiming that was better than cash because it would go up in value (yeah, right). Anyone remember the names of these companies, I’m drawing a blank. Also any recollection of what went wrong and lessons learned that might apply to the current rush to deploy broadand. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
