--=======6DEB5CA5======= Content-Type: text/plain; x-avg-checked=avg-ok-294357D; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I have some information about the redeployment of Ricochet. It seems that no one in the valley has seriously stepped up to the plate with interest in being a partner with marketing, technical and management of the network. Oh, and there is a little bit of a funding matter that the partner would need to come up with. So, anyone have some extra money laying around they could be pool together? : ) The bottom line is that the funding money to implement before year end is really huge. No one wants to step up to the plate for that. There are only approx. 4,000 customers that were on service here in Phoenix. So, if Aire Networks has to implement themselves, it will be next year or even longer as they are picking those states to deploy where they have a marketing/funding partner first and then deploy all others themselves. If anyone has several million just laying around, I do have direct contact with an Aire Network owner. The other item that must be in place in order to deploy is a local ISP company. Which is why I got a response I guess. There have been responses back to funding partners but none of them are willing to part with a few million to implement. Aire Networks will talk to me at least, so call me directly if you are serious and actually have several million laying around. Otherwise, we can wait for them to deploy in a year or two. Just a bit of information, I have two people that I will approach for funding. It's possible that they may want to lend some money in places that make sense. I won't know for another two weeks though as one is out of country. This is definitely not a post to hype people up but more of an update. Please don't shoot the messenger! hehehe But in all aspects, I am wanting to seriously consider doing this for the Phoenix area and would like to exhaust all efforts if possible to do so. Thanks.
