As a participant in the 3650 ecosystem you should be highly interested in everyone playing by the same rules. After all, if 3650 gets ruined you'll have a hard time selling 3650 radios.

And, it turns out that customer only has one radio authorization. Further, you mention Tolly Marcus, but what about you? Did you not represent yourself at WiMAX World as a Zing employee? What are people supposed to think given the situation? Did Zing pick Aperto based on merit or an employee relationship? Does Zing have more than one Aperto radio deployed? Either they haven't deployed many radios or they have done so illegally. Both possibilities seem to make them a poor choice for Aperto to use as a representative customer. This is especially true given both Patrick and your statements regarding how little Aperto issues press releases. Shouldn't that mean the press releases actually issued are more important? > Remember as well we didn't release 3.650 product until about 6 months > after > Redline, so you cant expect there to be a lot out there for you to find in > the FCC database.

I specifically pointed out that I don't have any direct experience with Aperto. However, I needed to provide a reasoned response as to why I didn't suggest Aperto as a WiMAX vendor. -Matt -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
