"Public relations should first understand that to the extent that its art is a form of 'spin'--whether it's reasonable spin, accepted spin, good spin, bad spin, terrible spin--it is selling a service for which there is less and less value, and less mind is paid to it. Spin was possible in the era of few-to-many media, and a small number of gatekeepers who could be spun...."

Wireless Broadband In Action

Wireless Broadband In Action 09/15/2004 01:39 PM
Some folks from Mobile Pipeline have been out and about in North Carolina testing Nextel's wireless broadband test system using Flarion's FLASH-OFDM technology that generated so much attention earlier this year. The reviewers are quite impressed. They found it an adequate replacement for fixed broadband, but (more impressively) discovered it worked almost as well in motion, while driving around. Mobility is where the real power of wireless broadband will be - because it will let people do things that they simply can't do now. It's worth noting, of course, for all the talk about WiMax, the mobile WiMax standard is still a ways away, and all the initial deployments will only be focused on fixed offerings. Nextel, of course, still hasn't committed to Flarion, and is known to be testing a few other wireless broadband solutions as well (though, with less fanfare). However, no matter what technology (or technologies) you're betting on, it looks like real mobile wireless broadband is on the way.

A few announcements have been made over the last couple of days about new broadband wireless deployments. Two come from Alvarion, including one where Telekom Serbia will build networks to support voice and data in suburban and rural Serbia. Closer to home, Alvarion also announced that its gear will supply a broadband wireless backbone network in Maryland, connecting counties that are part of a project connecting libraries and supplying mobile wireless for public safety workers. In other broadband wireless news, Redline said that its equipment will provide backhaul for a wireless network being built in a region of Manitoba, Canada. Wi-LAN, a Calgary, Canada-based supplier, said that its products are being used by various customers, including a large ISP, in Malaysia. AirRover Wi-Fi, a company based in Baton Rouge, La., signed an agreement in principal to build city-wide mesh Wi-Fi networks in a couple of cities in the Philippines. It must be refreshing for vendors to be making these kinds of sales, even before they are actually selling certified WiMax gear. There has been a fear that customers would delay buying decisions as they wait for certified WiMax gear. Perhaps the buzz around WiMax has generally helped to legitimatize broadband wireless so that some customers decide it will pay off for them to deploy now rather than wait for standard gear....

Broadband wireless could disrupt 3G,
says Analysys 12/19/2004 03:09 PM
Business case for broadband wireless access (BWA) technologies requires mobility to get beyond low-margin fixed Internet access. Broadband wireless technologies forced to compete in the same space as 3G to avoid being marginalised as niche fixed access solutions. Systems available now from Flarion, IPWireless and ArrayComm all offer mobility and will be joined by WiMAX (802.16) and MobileFi (802.20). Vendors still face big challenges in selling to mobile operators as a result of unsubstantiated performance and costs, lack of integration with cellular base stations and limited availability of spectrum. Early commercial business models are delivering only one percent of the revenue per Mbyte of traditional cellular voice and messaging services. WiMAX and MobileFi must learn from early propositions to define winning service propositions and operator business models. Report assesses the true capabilities of, and prospects for, a range of alternative mobile wireless technologies. [PRWEB Dec 16, 2004]

Using EU funds, TeliaSonera will help build a broadband wireless network in a region of Sweden that is without broadband access: The network will be built with so-called "pre-WiMax" equipment, or gear that hasn't been certified WiMax but may receive certification once that process begins. This is precisely the type of network that many experts say WiMax is ideal for--covering remote areas that aren't served by wired broadband. Ultimately, such networks could be built in developing nations but initially the networks and products may not be inexpensive enough to serve such markets....

Wi-LAN said that China Telecom is using its gear to deploy a broadband wireless network in Tianjin: China Telecom will use unlicensed frequencies and looks at this deployment as a test before potentially building similar networks in other regions. The point-to-multipoint network can be used to supply data and voice. Wi-LAN uses proprietary technology based on OFDM but says it's the same technology that makes up the 802.16 standard. That standard is backed by the WiMAX Forum, which hasn't started certifying products yet. The press release doesn't seem to be online yet but may be available here eventually....

McCaw Launches Clearwire

McCaw Launches Clearwire 06/02/2004 12:51 AM
The Wall Street Journal reports Craig McCaw to launch nationwide wireless Internet service on Wednesday: As Steve Stroh reported a month ago, McCaw's Clearwire will be an alternative to cell-based data networks and fixed-location or even citywide Wi-Fi offer 1.5 to 2 megabits per second. This is clearly downstream speed; upstream isn't noted. Service will launch this summer in two cities and expand to 20 within a year, the report says. The service is described as portable, but not mobile, which is a key distinction: portable means it can be used easily in many places; mobile means it can be used while in motion (walking or driving often having a distinct difference). Cellular services are mobile and portable. Wi-Fi is typically neither except in newer cases of hotzones or citywide Wi-Fi in which its certainly portable, and may also be mobile at the right speeds and in the right locations. According to Stroh's research in April and May, Clearwire will use technology from NextNet, a company acquired by McCaw. The Journal and Stroh both note that this is interim technology that will ultimately transition to WiMax equipment, although Nancy Gohring has reported that U.S.-capable WiMax gear may not be available until as late as 2006....

Spokane Plans Dual-Use City-Wide Wi-Fi
Net 04/23/2004 01:30 PM
Spokane's proposal for a city-side network would have two parallel uses: a protected, private public safety net, and a public side for general use: The network currently exists downtown and response to the Washington town's effort has been positive. The downtown network will ultimately span about 100 city blocks and cost north of $500,000 due to donations from Vivato and other vendors. The city's pitch for funding will play on the improved service for public safety (fire, medical, police). Oddly, the story doesn't mention two frequently cited reasons for switching to Wi-Fi for public safety: redundancy with other coverage for emergencies, and cost savings because most public safety radio equipment uses licensed spectrum and proprietary devices....

ICOA seems to be specializing in smaller but high-volume airports like Sacramento, Savannah/Hilton Head, and Fresno that require very little hardware but reach a million or more passengers a year. Extrapolating from Concourse's figures for usage at Minneapolis-St. Paul, these smaller airports should see 20 to 30 sessions per day....

Girls Top Guys in Tech Purchases

Girls Top Guys in Tech Purchases 05/28/2004 03:36 PM

A "news report" on the KELO website says that women are outspending men on tech gadgets.

Women have crossed the digital divide that once separated them from the male-dominated world of technology. Last year, women spent fourteen percent more than men on electronics.

Now whether that is related to the reasons outlined in the article, or due to women buying tech toys for the boys in their lives is anybody's guess. Gee, maybe the reason they buy more is that when a gadget stops working, they tend to throw it away and buy new instead of dealing with fixing it. If the way the women in my life handle things technical is at all indicative of the population in general, I'd say that'd be it.
