Calypso Wireless (fka CLYW)

I don`t know in detail how the differences is between the comapnies regarding speed, cost and capacity. But I know that BT are working on a project together with several european companies to find a joint solution that combines hotspots/hotzones here they are talking about how the consumer can save money.

When it comes to capacity they are also working on a compressing solution togther with Orsus Solutions, so i think the compressing part is making up for eventual advantage for CLYW`s part here.

When it comes to 4 I will just have to say that we are talking less that a second where the client are connecting one net and keeping the other, so i don`t know if there exactly is any differnce. espcially in countries like norway where we have on or two big companies that all have GSM/GRPS, UMTS and WLAN nets, so it will be the same operator used many times. Also BT have hotspot software deployed several places and the BT hotspot-sofware will of course be working real good together, so it can be sold as a package to a lot of operators!

My point is that I think CLYW, BT and competitors have the same vision but minor differencies in their solution. ASNAP is probably going to be a bit more expensive than BTMIP beacuse it involves hardware (correct me if I am wrong!). BTMIP is price at 20 dollars today and the price is likely of fall more during the year. Similiar solution to ASNAP (nemotion and Ipunplugged) are pricing at 80 dollars.
