Tropos Mentioned in ABC 7 Story on Wi-Fi

A WiFi network requires the installation of hundreds of routers on top of light poles. It took 414 of them to blanket Mountain View. Tropos Networks in Sunnyvale supplies the units and the software to most of the metro-wide systems. It has 110 employees now, but will add at least 50 more next year as more cities leap into WiFi. Chief Executive Ron Sege says there are 250 million WiFi equipped devices, many of them waiting to connect. "Every Sony Play Station portable has WiFi on it. Every Nintendo DS gaming machine has WiFi on it. An incredible number of cameras have WiFi on it. So you can only imagine how people will start using those devices as metro-scale WiFi becomes ubiquitous."
