It's a fair question and it bugs me too. Fact is, I was a more than a bit blind and thought I was more objective than I really was. Also, since then the economy and other conditions has conspired to kick e in the teeth a bit. I still believe it is great technology for nomadic and perhaps mobile, but it is damned near impossible to fight the LTE interests AND the current economy that is so weak no big guys are spending big CAPEX, giving LTE all the time it needs to catch technically (and it already dominates politically). That has me moving back to where I began -- wireless broadband is primarily a fixed business, with some added nomadicity in some cases. For that, d is the better standard, at least with my current hindsight.

I'd like to knowwhatyouthink. Patrick, can you clarify the e vs. d for me. The reason I ask is that I saw you do the Alvarion webinar and claimed that e was the only way to go. Now that you are with Aperto, d is the only way to go. On Mon, Feb 23, 2009 at 1:17 PM, Jeff Booher <[email protected]> wrote: > Marlon, > > What are you talking about?
