@alphabravo I think this guy is linked to a service, speedchoice, that may be an important bit of information. I don't understand it exactly, but I think that this may be a private internet that they use for communication.

SpeedChoice A Corporate Profile www.speedchoice.com

Preface: Ordinarily, 21st does not publish corporate background pieces. But we are making an exception with SpeedChoice. With xDSL and cable modems being pitched at consumers and small businesses around the country, it is useful to make a comparison with alternative "data pipe" technologies like Multichannel Multi-point Distribution Service(see accompanying technical article on MMDS).SpeedChoice is representative of what these alternative digital pipe providers will soon be offering in most parts of the USA. It is thus instructive to compare what this company has to offer in terms of products, services and pricing with xDSL or cable modem services. Things are changing fast, and the high speed "converged" access ballgame is far from over. The fact that SpeedChoice is being purchased by Sprint makes this backgrounder all the more interesting. See also the article in this issue,"Digital Television, Exploring Opportunities for Broadcasters" by Scott Kosch. When all these articles are read back to back, an interesting pattern begins to emerge. A lot of money is about to be made some, and lost by many. Vale 's Dolo column in this regard nicely sums it all up. -- Ed.
