From the Trenches: Hang up, toss out
No doubt, the wireless industry doesn't have a lot to
smile about these days.
Broadband wireless is still years off, and there's not
a lot of new growth in
customers using mobile cell phones. It's an industry in
search of a fresh angle,
and a couple of California companies think they've found
one.

SPECIAL
REPORT
Parking Garage @ 1st and Main
One of the keys to eMainUSA's success is meeting the neighborhood's
parking
needs. On September 6, 2001, Mayor David Armstrong held
a press conference
to announce that the Donley's design/build team –
which includes local architects
Godsey Associates, as well as CKC Engineers and Graelic
L.L.C. – was selected
to build a 650-lot parking garage on the southeast corner
of First and Main
Streets. Not only does this garage meet the neighborhood's
needs, but it is also a
beautiful addition to eMainUSA.

Sani-Dryer is fourth company to join
bCatalyst
Sani-Dryer, which has developed a technology to sanitize
and dry shopping
carts, has been selected as the fourth company to move
into the for-profit
business accelerator, bCatalyst. The 2-year-old Sani-Dryer
was founded in 1999
by Bryan Crum, a Louisville electrical contractor and
president of Crum Service
Industries Co., after Crum watched his infant daughter
chew on the handle of a
shopping cart and realized the carts might be spreading
germs and making
people sick. The Sani-Dryer system can wash and dry more
than 3,000 shopping
carts a day.

to do more. Mobile
professionals can have what they need at their fingertips
most anywhere they
happen to be. This translates to better customer service,
faster response time for
prospects and customers and can lead to increased profits.
The trend is here.
America and the world have embraced wireless technology
and are moving
forward with it.
