(Mbps), enabling live video web-casting, company demonstrations, remote
Internet and email access, file transfers, and live data feeds.

us that their fixed broadband wireless services would be the perfect fit
for this year’s LA Music Awards,”
said Aric Berquist, CEO of the SyncLive. “We
require a business-class, high-speed broadband service, combined with
excellent customer service, which Covad Wireless is consistently able to
deliver.”
