Autonet has taken an idea a long time business colleague and I suggested to a now defunct mobile data company back in 2001. The idea was to take mobile data, turn it into Bluetooth and WiFi so any device could access it, all in one box.
The idea is very plausible and for low bitrate data like IM and email, it could be the solution to remote computing.
Yes, but autonet was able to attract VC money and a large client to sustain their business model until demand proved sufficient. We were too early to market. www.wi-ran.com

AutoNet is a late player to enter this market. As far as I know there are at least four products like this including one that I worked on.
