My personal opinion is, that if someone had to chose just one show to attend, it would be ISPCON. Because it offers a little about everything, because it has the funding and experience management to be nothing but top professional. Its also has a VERY strong advisory board of experts that help direct its direction. However, that opinion is not meant to take any

Hi Linda, This is what Steve Stroh has to say about WiNOG, WISPCON, Broadband Wireless World, WiMAXWorld WiNOG is well-positioned to serve a segment of the Broadband Wireless industry that has gone unnoticed and unserved. PART-15.ORG’s WISPCON focuses on smaller and startup Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs), The combination of Wireless Communications Association’s (WCA) two annual conferences, Shorecliff Communication’s Broadband Wireless World, and Trendsmedia’s WiMAX World focuses on much larger Broadband Wireless Internet Access Service Providers. WiNOG targets WISPs that are well beyond the startup phase in longevity of business, overall scale of business, network, and number of customers, but have not yet grown to have their needs met by the three larger conferences. This is a very real, but specialized market segment, and Charles Wu, Operating Manager of CWLab, has laser-focused WiNOG to serve this segment very well. While WiNOG is an ideal conference to attend for WISPs that are intent on growing larger and have already started to endure the “pains” of growth, WiNOG’s main audience is to provide peer-to-peer experience exchanges between the “Big WISPs”.

They ALL have something to offer if you're willing to listen and learn. I just got back from the annual www.ec-expo.com. That's a free show with lots of product specific stuff. There's a GREAT group that goes to this one and lots of help is available. Charles, Matt, I, Damien (Tranzeo), and a few others (forgive me) had a very good very high level chat about a number of things. I picked up quite a few new bits from here and there. AND I ran into David Huges. I hope I am half as with it at 78 as he is! (Yeah yeah, I'm already half as good. Har har grin) WISPCON has always been about nothing but wisps. WCA is more carrier based. ISPCon is a GREAT show. The wireless track is light as there's usually only one track. But there's a lot to running a wisp than just wireless stuff. I think about the best mix would be to go to one or two different ones each year. That help?

Hi Linda, This is what Steve Stroh has to say about WiNOG, WISPCON, Broadband Wireless World, WiMAXWorld WiNOG is well-positioned to serve a segment of the Broadband Wireless industry that has gone unnoticed and unserved. PART-15.ORGs WISPCON focuses on smaller and startup Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs), The combination of Wireless Communications Associations (WCA) two annual conferences, Shorecliff Communications Broadband Wireless World, and Trendsmedias WiMAX World focuses on much larger Broadband Wireless Internet Access Service Providers. WiNOG targets WISPs that are well beyond the startup phase in longevity of business, overall scale of business, network, and number of customers, but have not yet grown to have their needs met by the three larger conferences. This is a very real, but specialized market segment, and Charles Wu, Operating Manager of CWLab, has laser-focused WiNOG to serve this segment very well. While WiNOG is an ideal conference to attend for WISPs that are intent on growing larger and have already started to endure the pains of growth, WiNOGs main audience is to provide peer-to-peer experience exchanges between the Big WISPs.

Re: [WISPA] WISPCon
Your best bet for a commercial trade show is to approach vendors presenting there. Check the site and contact any of the vendors - they have a vested interest in selling you stuff and therefore have an interest in getting you in the door. The organizers are interested in making money off you and the vendors, so they are your worst bet (well except for any WISPA yet to be announced meetings :-) Jory Privett wrote: As a WISP paid member does anyone know where I can get discount passes to WispCon in Dallas October 9-11?

RE: [WISPA] WISPCon
WISPA was started initially in response to "Part-15/WISPCON's" lack of representation of true WISP issues (although you can't fault Mike for it, it needs to be known that Part-15.org is a FOR-PROFIT organization existing to put money in Mike's pocket). Until recently (due to circumstances created by the Katrina & Rita disasters), there has been ill-will b/n Part-15 & WISPA due to the fact that Mike has lost revenue from WISPA members, and unless things have significantly changed, it is doubtful that a "discount pass" relationship b/n Part-15 & WISPA exists If you're interested in shows (or just getting together w/ other WISPs) in the Dallas area, Smartbridges is currently in the process of putting together a North American Road Show http://www.smartbridges.com/about/articles.asp?id=398 Best of all, it's free -Charles --- CWLab Technology Architects http://www.cwlab.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jory Privett Sent: Wednesday, September 28, 2005 10:18 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] WISPCon As a WISP paid member does anyone know where I can get discount passes to WispCon in Dallas October 9-11?
