One if by land, two if by C

Article Abstract:

Comsat Mobile Communications is offering a newly expanded service, Comsat-C, allowing customers to receive Internet e-mail from any point on earth. The service works by scanning the four regions of the globe to find the recipient, so the sender is left unaware of the recipient's location. Targeted at people who need to communicate in remote regions, the service is seeing the most interest initially from clients at sea. Once a water craft is outfitted with an Inmarsat-C satellite terminal, costing $1,000 to $3,000, the sender registers an e-mail address with Comsat, and then the sender contacts their ISP. The sender then enters a nine-digit ID number of the receiving Inmarsat-C terminal and follows it with the "@c-link.net" designator. Comsat then searches for the recipient, and once found, delivers the message. A confirmation can be sent back the the sender, if desired.

Cellularvision USA: first we take Manhattan

Article Abstract:

US Federal Judge Harold Greene's efforts in overseeing the divestiture of AT&T in the mid-1980s has led to an increasingly deregulated atmosphere in the cable TV, telecommunications and data communications industries. In response to this, many companies have crossed industry lines in an effort to provide customers with an innovative integration of services. CellularVision USA applies this approach in its development of cellular technology that utilizes underused portions of the FM bandwidth channel. CellularVision is also developing innovative technological solutions that incorporate various aspects of wireless, telephony, Internet and broadband communications, allowing the company to expand its marketing potential and serve diverse regions.
