Aerie Networks May Buy Metricom Network

Maybe all of those plans for using the old Ricochet modems for personal use should be postponed ..." This Denver Post story linked to from the Aerie website indicates that the CNET story's close is wrong about Aerie building its own network, and that they're basically looking for ways to survive without building their own network. If they can make Ricochet pay, a lot of people will be grateful.

Suddenly, as I refreshed the last article, someone (CmdrTaco) had moderated down almost every post.
The last time I checked there were only 2 out of 52 posts above 0. Unbelievable abuse of power!
