MIDLOTHIAN - Ellis County’s popular wireless Internet service provider AirCanopy has merged with Skybeam, a national ISP.

The change will be completed, AirCanopy said, on Jan. 1.

Customers won’t see too many changes, according to a letter AirCanopy sent out to customers last weekend.

Invoices will be changed from AirCanopy to Skybeam; customers’ prices will not change either, the letter stated.

Additional products will be provided as a result of the merger, according to now-Skybeam general manager Phil Walsh.

Among the various new items will be Voice Over IP (VOIP) phone service and larger bandwidth plans.
