In Monday's National Post, you'll find a profile on Nick Kauser. Not known to many people outside the wireless industry, Kauser is the “brains” behind the new high-speed wireless joint venture involving Allstream Inc. and Microcell Telecommunications Inc. The technology being used was developed by Kauser when he was working at AT&T Wireless Services in the mid-1990s. Unfortunately, AT&T had no confidence in the economic prospects of “Project Angel” and shelved the business in late-2000 after launching it in several cities. Undaunted by this failure, Kauser is obviously hoping it will have more success this time around.
