$5/mo for e-mail only (we offer web mail, imap, pop3, spam filtering (user

We offer a e-mail forwarding service, however this can be a problem,

There is a ton of licensed 6 GHz systems already deployed. They make you

I could see 16 dB sectors. Of course they will be large, but that's what it
takes at these frequencies. We'll have antennas the same size as the
broadcast TV antennas are now (I've seen some over 40' tall). Hopefully a
