We have quite a few live Aperto networks being deployed with residential and/or business services. I am not going to speak for the deployment of Aperto gear over the entire U.S. but I can say they are out there.

I am not sure I even like the term viable. I wouldn't suggest Aperto or recommend them as a WiMAX vendor. Of course, I don't have any direct experience with Aperto's current product line. Therefore, I can't compare and contrast their offerings to other WiMAX vendors that I do have experience with. Anecdotical evidence suggests that Aperto is not widely deployed. According to Aperto's press releases I only see one company mentioned that has deployed their WiMAX gear in the US. I don't know much about Zing to which the press release mentions. What I do know is that according to ULS they have only been approved to deploy a single Aperto radio. Further, at WiMAX World last year it seemed that Zing's CTO was employed by Aperto in sales. Compare this to Redline and Alvarion, which have lots of approved radios in ULS and multiple US customers including some large customers. -Matt -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
