| Almost there The saying goes, "It's almost there" is so true here. Take the 300k-500k, divide it in half, then subtract 100k from it and that will be your real world speeds.
The idea is nice and the technology is maturing, but we're not there yet for cells to compete with cable and DSL. Let forget price at this point. We all know it's expensive.
We have a couple air cards. They're nice if you are on the road and at the airport waiting for a flight, and you need Internet access right now. But finding at times the signal doesn't come through evenly all the time. I could be 150k-200k then drop down to 40k and I haven't moved.
Try explaining that to your CEO when he's at the beach and can't get a go signal. I tell him to jump in the car and drive down route 1 until you get a good signal. That my biggest complaint. |

 TransmasterDon't Blame Me I Voted For Bill and Opus join:2001-06-20 Cheyenne, WY | I get so tired... of people bitching at me because I can't hear them on a crappy cell phone connection. It is always the same thing; Well you GD, SOB. A$$hole, I paid bla-bla for this phone and I am paying bla-bla per month *&!##! you. I tell them you can pay thought the nose for a fancy cell phone to look at your phone porn but if the signal path to the cell site sucks so will you, from then on it is total excrement deleted.:) I wish these wireless phone providers would concentrate on getting a good phone signal before they started adding crappy ding-dong services. -- Low voltage Tech's are wimps, Real tech's use 45 pound filament transformers, plate voltages no less then 2400 volts with at least 10 amp's lighting 8877 triodes...BPL I'm coming to get you. |
