Omnispace?

[Terry N4TLF]

Reminds me of those commercials that I see all the time about using 
airplanes to bounce Internet availability around the world.  Yeah, sure, 
there are airplanes always covering every square mile of the world.  Yeah, 
sure, it will have all the bandwidth necessary.  Yeah, sure, it uses the 
buzzword "mesh".  Simple, no?
Terry, N4TLF

At least they're not LightSquared screwing up the L band...  though the 2 
GHz band stuff (spatial reuse?  high gain antennas?  hmmm) seems very 
suspect to me.
