I've had mixed results with Clearwire's solution. Downtown it works pretty
well, but... same issue with walls. If you can get the receiver set up at a
window, then it might work. If you want, I can bring mine to work (I work @
the Omni office building) and we can check it out.
Cost: $100 for the antenna, $50/month for purported 1.5Mb bandwidth (check
clear.com for details).
Cheers,
Shlomi
