Hang tight there Brad, according to that post, Allen, who was flipping
me attitude, exposed that he was 55% Alvarion and 45% non. +/-
He certainly was leaning towards Trango and I remember when Trango upped
the prices and let Charles and the others handle end sales, he was kinda
pissed and ranted.
Sound familiar?
So he was linking Trango at that time, and MT as well.

Nice job of cherry picking posts Patrick. I am impressed!
I stand corrected that Allen was more of an Alvarion shop than I remember.
I largely recall our Trango discussions and I believe Allen and I even
exchanged Trango product once upon a time. My how time flys.
Best,
Brad

Wow, George, you must know something about my network that
I don't know. On second thought, you don't know. I hate
ignorance almost as much as crack.. Here I'll help you:
Alvarion FH AP's: 11
Alvarion FH CPE: 130
Alvarion DS AP's: 1
Non-Alvarion DS AP's: 4
Non-Alvarion DS CPE: 1
Trango AP's: 6
Trango CPE: 20
Heh, lets see what entire network I put on ebay first. ;-)

I don't consider FHSS broadband <grin> Allen quickly moved to broadband
fixed wireless gear like Trango, WMUX among others.
Yes, MobilePro bought ShreveNet along with Kite and a few others.
MobilePro's first acquisition was NationWide Internet...primarily a
conventional ISP with little wireless. We are very familiar with
MobilePro.
Best,
Brad

Wrong Brad. Allen Marsalis was originally an Alvarion shop going back
into the late 1990's (when were BreezeCOM).

Are they the company that bought Allen M. 's WISP? As I recall he was an
Alvarion shop

U.S. Wireless Online is a conglomeration. Originally it was started by
buying at bankruptcy the assets of late firms like Darwin Networks. A
few years later they merged with Air2LAN (Jai Baghat's old company)
out
of Jackson, MS. They then rolled up a number of WISPs. So they got old
MY customers, some Wi-Fi customers, some hotspot business, some
traditional WISP business, etc. Lots of different brands in there,
including us among many others.
So I suppose it'd be tricky to get a good count that we easily compare
with WISP pure play type business.
