Calypso Wireless (fka CLYW)

[Sosa]

At first, I was disappointed with their setup. That is, their booth compared to some of the exhibitors. Don't get wrong, some exhibitors have deep pockets and can afford elaborate setups, while others had no products to display just brochures.

Upon further discussion with Bruno, it became apparent that their intention was not to let people see what they have but rather to see what product the competition have and to determine if their products are infringing.

If Calypso had jumped the gun and try to claim infringment, the competition would deny the product existed. Now they can't claim that because they just advertised to the whole world they have this product that seamlessly roams and provides revenue sharing. I sensed Calypso was waiting for this VON Expo.

I am sure the brochures that Bruno and the engineers picked up will appear in court one day.

To answer your question, I went there to investigate the following;

1. Does a phone exist.
2. When will they start selling them
2. Is it embedded with ASNAP(tm)
3. Who is their target market.
4. How are the carriers embracing this technology.
5. How strong is the patent.
