We are mobilizing to help those in dire straits. SlingShot is a subsidiary of EcoDigital Development Group (EDG) under TEAM EDG we have an environmental engineering and remediation firm, a property redevelopment company, and believe or not a RV rental company.
We are working out the logistics to provide temporary housing in some of the areas with the RV rental company. Also we are sending representatives from the environmental remediation group to help with the clean up. We (SlingShot) are going down to see if we can assist with DATA/VOIP connections for first responders. Our (SlingShot) major concern at this time is to work with those providers in the area and help establish wireless communications to those in law enforcement, emergency medical services, clean up crews and human services. I would like to be able to help set up some mobile WIFI hotspots where folks can reconnect with a loved one via e-mail or VOIP services. Trango Broadband has offered to provide us with equipment in order to re-establish wireless connectivity. I saw where you mentioned you had bandwidth available. Is there anyone else in the area with active services? Maybe we can pull something together. In closing, if a long term reconstruction contract is established then I would hope we would have an opportunity work on it. So I guess the answer to your question is Yes and No. Jeff -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JohnnyO Sent: Thursday, September 01, 2005 2:46 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: RE: [WISPA] Wireless Communication Support Jeff - are you doing this "for profit" or just on a volunteer basis ?
