WISP (1) (Wireless ISP) An ISP that provides fixed or mobile wireless services to its customers. Using Wi-Fi, WiMAX or proprietary wireless methods, WISPs provide last mile access to rural areas and small villages as well as industrial parks at the edge of town. For example, Clearwire is a WISP that uses WiMAX to deliver the Internet to customers. See Clearwire, WiMAX, ISP, fixed wireless, WISPr and 802.11.(2) A Web payment service from Trivnet, Ltd., Tel Aviv, Israel (www.trivnet.com). It specializes in premium digital content that is billed to Internet service provider (ISP), telephone company or credit card accounts.

No references found | Now 53 with wispily thinned hair, greying beard and showing an extra inch or two around the waist, the original hardcore troubadour is a touring junkie still performing 200 live shows a year. Giuseppe Pietraroia, conducting the Puccini-sanctioned orchestral reduction by Etore Panizza, drew a broad swath of tonal hues from orchestra and chorus alike: the shimmering textures of the "Humming Chorus," for instance, sounded as wispily impressionistic as anything by Debussy, yet remained true to their Puccianian ethos. Armed with her usual brand, wispily hypnotic vocals and a hook that would make Da Brat jealous (it features Da Brat's signature line), Mariah's new sound should easily place her back on top of the rock star heap. |
