question about WISPs

There was a slashdot.org article talking about WISPs a while ago. The
article linked to wispdirectory.com which contains the following
entry:

http://www.wispdirectory.com/index.p...5674&Itemid=53

I go to the website linked to from that URL and... if it's an ISP, I
sure can't tell from their website. If I click on products, I see
that they sell hardware with which wireless hotspots can be created,
but nothing about them actually providing internet connectivity.

Am I just not understanding what a WISP is or is the above company
not, in point of fact, a WISP, despite their inclusion in
wispdirectory.com?
