  • Jeffrey Kosseff and Eric Hand write "Wireless channel use sets up turf battle". Eric Hand happened to be at one our MonthlyMeetings and heard us discussing the problems we were having with the recently deployed T-Mobile/Starbucks AccessPoint conflicting with ours. It's a controversial but pretty friendly article.

  • Rick Merritt writes "Public 802.11 nets raise tech, business concerns" which has a brief mention of the list of WirelessCommunities we maintain.

  • Ben Charny writes "Cable companies cracking down on Wi-Fi". A pretty friendly look at the situation with Time Warner and NycWireless. A quote from AdamShand appears at the end.

  • Brooke Singer writes "Where do you want to go today?". She pimps the SatelliteTruck as a "Temporary Telecommunication Autonomous Zones" to the art crowd in New York. Very cool.

26 February 2002 - Radio Interview on KXL (750 AM)

  • BrianWestbrook interviewed AdamShand live and on the air from the Pioneer Courthouse Square node at 7:40AM. The interview was about five minutes long and was great coverage during the morning commute!

19 February 2002 - The Oregonian

  • Jeffrey Kosseff writes "Personal Telco sets up free Net access". It's nice to finally get some press in the Oregonian but I (AdamShand) haven't been quoted that out of context for quite a while and the StealingBandwidth refrain is getting particularly tired, especially given that this was about the PioneerSquareNode which is powered by business T1's.

  • Jim Krane writes "Digital activists want to share the Internet's wealth -- er, bandwidth" the main point of this article seems to be fear mongering in the business world that we're "stealing bandwidth" and the ISP's and Telco's aren't gonna like that.
