Patrick, Thanks for clarifying the true value of the generous donation that Alvarion made. I did have that on the list below. If I misstated it, I apologize. It was great to see you to, I'm only sorry I didn't have more time to talk to you. You looked like you were feeling much better than last year.
Thanks, Rick -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Leary Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 1:25 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: RE: [WISPA] ISPCON Notes Rick, Don't forget the late entry of a full BreezeNET B100 link that went to WISPER Wireless Internet in Belleville, IL by the draw of Mike Delp's card. That thing lists for $7,990. Thanks for allowing Alvarion to donate the link to the raffle at the last minute. Mike, if I see it on eBay I'll break your legs! :) Matt Larson has one up now and he told me last night the link is over 30 miles and it is pulling over 20 mbps without blinking and that it has been true set-and-forget. Rudy, Jeff, George, Mac, J.C., Matt, Jack, Rick, Dave, et all...it was great to see you last night. The reception was absolutely packed. Nice job and thanks to Powercode and ImageStream for stepping up to sponsor it.

Attendance was fabulous with a crowd that reached overcapacity for the room we had reserved. We want to thank all members, potential members and vendors who came to the reception and shared this time with us. The highlight of the evening was the announcement of the WISPA Outstanding WISP Operator of the Year Award. President Matt Larsen made this presentation following an outstanding speech about WISPA, our accomplishments and our goals for the future. This year's winner was Travis Johnson of IDA.Net. Travis received a very nice plaque for his accomplishments of serving around 4000 clients in the rough terrain of Idaho. Our sincere congratulations go out to Travis, his staff and his family. Great Job! We also want to thank Imagestream and Powercode for sponsoring the reception. Without vendor support, many events such as this would not be possible. Special thanks to JC Utter and John Wright for stepping up to the plate this year. We also held a raffle at the end of the reception. Doorprizes were donated by many vendors and the winners are listed below. Thanks to all the vendors who supported this raffle.
