Hi Olin, We're at opposite ends of the state -- you're in Littleton, I'm in the Berkshires in a 'little town' called Richmond. I usually just say I'm from Pittsfield, MA since it is just a hop away and is more recognizable to people in the state than Richmond is. I'm currently unemployed (I've never been an independent consultant). Before being laid off, I was working (~4.5 years) at Telaxis Communications (which used to be called Millitech Corporation)-- we were using PICmicros in our broadband wireless radio and FiberLeap products. Not too long after our final round of layoffs, Telaxis merged with YDI Wireless. What a road it's been after the "dot-bomb" hit!
