Business Wire
Ricochet Networks, Inc., a Denver-based leading Wireless Internet
Service Provider (WISP) and wholly owned subsidiary of Terabeam
Wireless (corporate name: YDI Wireless, Inc. - NASDAQ: YDIW), today
announced that it was chosen by The Center of Denver to provide
wireless Internet access for the Digital Entertainment Center and
technology showcase at Pride Fest Denver 2005. The annual Pride
Fest Denver festival, occurring this year on Sunday, June 26, 2005
from 9:00 a.m. until sunset, draws upwards of 170,000 attendees,
making it one of the Rocky Mountain region's largest events of its
kind. The Digital Entertainment Center exhibit will feature
innovative laptop and digital entertainment technologies. Ricochet
will provide wireless connectivity to the Ricochet(R) Network to
allow participants the opportunity to experience a truly wire-free
Internet experience, via laptops, from the heart of Denver's Civic
Center Park. Ricochet was contacted by The Center, the official
sponsor and organizer of Pride Fest Denver, to provide Internet
access when "wired" carriers could not deliver a connection to the
festival's outdoor location. The Center's Executive Director, Art
Thompson, stated "Ricochet's wireless modem presence combined with
Internet computer stations at Denver's Gay Pride Celebration
enables participants to interact with The Center and our new
website. We will be taking a real-time survey to help determine the
needs of the community and to determine direction on the
development of our programs." He ended by saying, "Without
Ricochet's participation, this project would be impossible." "This
further demonstrates the enormous flexibility that the Ricochet
Network provides," stated Steve Schwendemann, Ricochet Senior Vice
President Expansion. "We are pleased and excited to bring a
wireless solution to this situation. If you get a chance to attend
this great event, please come by the Digital Entertainment Center
or our booth to learn more about Ricochet and what we can do to set
you free." About Ricochet Networks Ricochet Networks, Inc. is a
