ViaBloga 2005-05-05T07:07:02Z Speakeasy Networks Pushes Pre-WiMax from Top of Space Needle Fredrik Speakeasy has been testing this network for months, and securing building rights. They wanted to be the exclusive 5.8 GHz tenant for the buildings they chose to avoid competition for these choice locations. They re on top of five buildings, which include the Space Needle and the Westin Building, where all of the major telecommunications links for the Pacific Northwest converge. Unlike TowerStream, which eschews terrestrial wire as much as they can, Speakeasy didn t build a wireless ring in the air. They re using their own private fiber-optic connections leased from AboveNet to serve their pre-WiMax feeds. In a shot at TowerStream, the company is describing their network as the largest densest network of its kind. The company expects to hit a very large zone of downtown Seattle with a single package of an aggregated 6 Mbps of bandwidth for $800 per month. The company said that they are trying to bust WiMax myths, and are promising their 6 Mbps aggregate service only within 1 1/2 to 2 miles of a transmitter in a zone they ve defined very densely.

]]> WiMAX turns the screw on 3G Fredrik By Wireless Watch Published Monday 14th February 2005 12:05 GMT Broadband wireless gained a bad name in the US in the late 1990s when companies such as Teligent failed spectacularly. But WiMAX is ushering in a brand new economic picture for such operators. Not only will standardization push down prices by fostering competition and volume, but spectrum suited to the technology is being auctioned cheaply in many countries in a bid to stimulate broadband - plus there is an unlicensed option. Another key factor is the falling cost of fiber backhaul, with dark fiber now within reach of midrange service providers as well as some enterprises. All this combines to put huge pressure on the financial assumptions of the 3G community, especially in Europe.

]]> EU promises a 'light touch' on VoIP regulation Fredrik EU regulators have agreed to apply a "light touch" to budding VoIP services. The decision, made by the European Commission and various national regulators, promises to pave the way for a revamping of European telephony, particularly the fixed line market, which is currently dominated by incumbent operators such as BT and France Telecom. "The European Commission and national regulators will jointly ensure that throughout the EU the rollout of new [VoIP] services will not be hindered by regulatory hurdles," said EU information society commissioner Viviane Reding in a statement. Europe lags far behind Japan and the US in VoIP service. In Japan, 4.9 million households use VoIP, while 1 million US homes have signed for service. Meanwhile, there are 220,000 VoIP users in France, 110,000 in Germany and just 50,000 in Britain.

Also: The above figures do not include Skype users, probably at least 1 million in Europe, over 2m now when the US is awake!
