Metricom, Inc. is a telecommunications company that pioneered wireless data communication networks. Established in 1985, Metricom developed the Ricochet network, which was the first wide-area wireless data network accessible to the general public. The company provided high-speed Internet access, email, and other data services to customers across various cities in the United States.
