We have them here in Ohio. I'm back and forth on it. On one hand, the one time I tried asking for some info from them they wanted to charge me some consulting fee and so a spectrum analysis of the area had nothing to do with what I was asking so I shut them out. Then I started going to the meetings again, had one this morning as a matter of fact. They really don't seem to be anything more than a group that is collecting government monies and giving the politicians an excuse to say they are doing something. Every meeting I've gone to has been a waste of time and from what I have seen it's because they take the lead but don't do anything with it. Leadership with no action.... You may as well do nothing.
The only bright spot I have had from them is a central place to go to find the census and mapping data. Other than that it's been a waste from my prospective.

My state hired them for the map, but I don't want to respond with any information if the things I heard in the past are still true. I don't remember the points, I just remembered that they were bad news, so to avoid them. They sent me an NDA, but I never really read any of that stuff anyway. Most any contract is about as effective as a paper bag holding water. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WISPA Wants You!
