Jack,
Good point. There are a lot of entities talking wireless, but most of the
non-WISPs don't necessarilly benefit from distinguishing between mobility and
fixed.
If WISPs don't knock this point home, nobody will.

I think it's going to be important for WISPA to educate the government and
the public so they learn to differentiate between broadband FIXED wireless
Internet access and MOBILE (i.e. cellular) wireless Internet access. If we
don't differentiate these two different services then the grants (and the
service) definitions can become and remain muddied. We already made this point
once in public at the Las Vegas hearing but IMHO we really need to keep
bringing this point up. No one else seems to be making it.

The worst thing I saw about it was.... 3G cellular service appears to
disqualify an area from being eligible for funding, based on definition of
underserved.
An area is eligible for underserved if it does not have a provider offering
over 3mbps down stream. However, without conditions for upload, or mandating
average, or considering wired only, 3G kills us because 3G is spec'd at 3.1
peak download. WISPA lobbied for 2mb upload and speeds based on average. We
didn't get that. :-(
