Re: [WISPA] Book1.xls
Chuck, I think someone (read - as in very many) have stretched the truth with your survey. I could be wrong, (not the first time) but according to your poll the 43 WISPs have an average of 1153.418 subscribers each! It appears that 27 of the 43 WISPs used Canopy and those 27 ISPs count for a total of 1162.3 subs each while the total of the rest of the WISPs combined (16) have an average of 1138.3 subscribers I guess there could be some really huge WISPs out here that participated in the survey that I am not aware of. Cool survey THANKS!!

Re: [WISPA] Book1.xls
Mac, Since this industry has really started to mature, I would not be surprised if this data is pretty close to the industry as a whole. While the makeup of the WISPA member WISP's may not all be big like this, there are certainly plenty of them that aren't members. Here is a link to a report done in California http://www.redwoodtech.org/files/CBI_WISP_Report_WorkingDraft_0.pdf about the status of the WISP industry. This was done by the state broadband task force and seems fairly balanced. California has done a pretty good job of documenting where broadband exists, that is, given what any one entity can do to document all the private business. I worked with one client to compare their results to what they knew as local market reality and it was pretty close. Heck there must be a lot more WISP's out there buying equipment that we know of at WISPA, I don't think the equipment manufacturers could survive on just the WISPA numbers alone. Given that they still develop new products also indicates there is more market than you or I may be aware of or else they would not still put RD efforts in to something they don't think they could sell and make profit on. I'm of the firm belief this industry is much bigger than anyone realizes, which is why I want to get the mapping initiative off the ground to start benchmarking things.

Re: [WISPA] Book1.xls
A bastardization of the last definition :-) I don't think these lists represent the whole industry, just a part of it. I think many of the opinions expressed on this list (including mine) might not represent what the collective opinion of the industry might be. Basically this... things I hear from our customers and things I hear from this list can often times be two separate realities. Neither is wrong, but one doesn't necessarily represent the other. Does that clarify some?

Re: [WISPA] Book1.xls
It absolutely does bring clarification :) There is an old saying that seems appropriate: You can never please all the people all the time, but you can please most of the people most of the time. It's been my experience that where there is more than one person to be represented - - there are at least as many ideas as people. There is never just one person right, but many are right at the same time, but they have different ways of going about explaining themselves or getting their idea to effective words. I would never say that WISPA is representing every WISP, but with or without each and every one of your memberships - we are representing the industry and being heard as so. If there are any of you out there that aren't a member of WISPA already- whatcha waiting for? :) In numbers there is strength and power. WISPA needs you, your number and your input to help guide this industry.
