Aiirmesh BRINGS WIRELESS BROADBAND TO CITIES LACKING BUILT-IN INFRASTRUCTURE

— New Wireless ISP Will Cover Citywide "Hot Zones" Instead of Individual
Hotspots; First City to Deploy Service to be Announced Shortly —

Las Vegas, NV — October 21, 2003 — Aiirmesh Wireless, a WiFi high-speed Internet service provider, deploying the latest in wireless technology, today announced a new ISP service that will partner with remote cities, rural areas and parts of cities removed from traditional cable and DSL infrastructure to provide wireless broadband Internet services. Aiirmesh expects to announce its first agreement to provide citywide wireless broadband services for a suburban city in California, said Aiirmesh CEO Stan Hirschman.

The Aiirmesh™ service can create a three-to-30 mile "hot zone" in which subscribers can have free-roaming access to wireless broadband. This service is ideal for a community that was considered too rural or falling just outside of larger cities' networks or has not yet become wired for fixed broadband. Aiirmesh has targeted a number of cities, towns and districts meeting this criteria, and is also working closely with the Rural Broadband Coalition (RBC) to identify the broadband needs of Rural America, which encompasses 75 percent of the land mass of the nation and 25 percent of the population.

"Tropos Networks is the ideal technology partner for the Aiirmesh services as our high performance Wi-Fi Cells enable deployments that were previously difficult or impossible," notes Bert Williams, VP of Marketing for Tropos Networks. "We're excited to help Aiirmesh realize our shared vision of bringing wireless broadband to every corner of America, including rural customers or urban customers who fall outside of existing broadband infrastructure.

"A sizable part of our mission is to make sure that rural and suburban America do not get passed over by the broadband revolution," notes Hirschman. "If these areas don't get wired, then we are looking at some 60 million forgotten people who could otherwise be a major contributor to our country's productivity." Hirschman also added that by enabling wireless broadband for an entire community, it could add jobs in rural communities by enhancing telecommuting opportunities to major metropolitan areas.
