 During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company entered into certain
 capital leases for computer equipment and related software valued at
 $900,993.  The Company issued a total of 98,926 shares of common stock of
 which 
 10,000 shares, valued at $75,000, or $7.50 per share, were issued as a
 preliminary cost towards obtaining a manufacturing contract, 60,000 shares,
 valued at $300,000, or $5.00 per share, were issued as payment for radio
 technology, 5,000 shares, valued at $25,000, or $5.00 per share, were
 issued in exchange for a note receivable, and 23,926 shares were issued on
 the exercise of stock options by an employee, for which the Company
 received a note in the amount of $47,852.




 
             WORLD WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 -- INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. 
In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments (which include only
normal recurring adjustments) have been made to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. 
Certain information and note disclosure normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested that these
condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the December 31, 1997
annual financial statements of the Company.  The results of operations for
the six month period ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of
the operating results to be expected for the full year. 

NOTE 2--COMMON STOCK

During the second quarter of 1998, the Company issued 176,000 shares on the
exercise of options for which the Company received $62,170 in cash, with an
average exercise price of $0.35 per share.

NOTE 3--ACQUISITION OF "PURCHASED RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT"

In May 1998, the Company acquired proprietary and intellectual property
rights in and to spread spectrum radio technology which has been accounted
for as "purchased research and development".  The acquisition of this
technology provides the Company with the ability to modify and update the
technology for use in its other radio products.  The purchase price was
$305,651, of which $300,000 was paid by the issuance of 60,000 common shares
valued at $5.00 per share, with the balance being paid in cash for closing
and related costs. Additionally, the Company loaned $66,450 to the seller to
retire certain business debts. Of this amount, $41,450 was paid in cash and
carries simple interest at 10%.  The balance of $25,000 was advanced through
the issuance of 5,000 common shares, valued at $5.00 per share, to two
creditors of the seller. The seller executed an unsecured promissory note
which is due on demand after the earlier of (1) registration by the Company
of the 60,000 shares of common stock or (2) June 22, 1999.

NOTE 4-BRIDGE LOANS

In May 1998, the Company executed certain bridge loans, in the amount of
$2,500,000. The notes were initially issued with interest at 10%, and later
the notes were  modified, retroactively, to bear interest at 16%.  The
interest is payable quarterly, commencing on August 15, 1998.  

The notes are due on May 15, 1999 and are secured by substantially all of
the assets of the Company.  The notes become due earlier on a pro-rated
basis if the Company receives proceeds from issuance of equity securities.
Proceeds from additional issuances to the Company's principal shareholders
are exempt from this requirement. The notes may be voluntarily prepaid,
without penalty or premium, in whole or in part, at any time.  Any
prepayment must include all accrued interest on the principal being prepaid,
through the date of prepayment.

In conjunction with these notes, the Company issued warrants to purchase
250,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share,
which was later reduced retroactively to $2.50 per share.  The warrants
expire on May 15, 2003.  The quantity of warrants are subject to adjustment
under certain circumstances, such as stock splits.  In the event the Company
fails to repay the notes at their maturity, the Company can be required to
issue warrants to purchase up to an additional 333,333 shares common stock,
exercisable for up to five years at an exercise price of $2.50 per share,
payable at the rate of 83,333 shares of common stock for each 90-day period
during which the default continues.  The Company is obligated to register
the underlying shares and bear the cost burden of such registration.


NOTE 5--REPURCHASE OF UNVESTED EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS

In April 1998, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of 638,236
unvested employee stock options granted during the fourth quarter of 1997
for $6,382, or $0.01 per share.  The Company has recognized compensation
expense, relating to these options, of  $412,005 in the first quarter of
1998 and $94,886 in April 1998.

As a result of the repurchase, the Company eliminated $903,619 of
unrecognized deferred compensation.

NOTE 6--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In  July  1998, the Company entered into a building lease and will bring
together, its corporate headquarters, manufacturing facilities and its main 
engineering facilities.  The Company anticipates moving into these new
facilities in October 1998.  
  
The lease is for a period of seven years with a monthly lease payment of
$23,922 and annual increases of  2.5%.  Total future minimum lease payments
are $2,166,588.  



Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

When used in this discussion, the words "expect(s)", "feel(s)",
"believe(s)", "will", "may", "anticipate(s)" and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements.  Such statements are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results
to differ materially from those projected.  Readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, and are urged to
carefully review and consider the various disclosures elsewhere in this Form 
10-Q.

Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997

Sales in the three-month period ended June 30, 1998 were $1,058,074,
compared to sales of $1,183,167 during the three-month period ended June 30,
1997. The Company's principal source of revenue for the quarter ended June
30, 1998 was a design and development contract for Williams Telemetry, a
Williams company, in the amount of $764,796.  Revenues from contract
manufacturing were $186,160 and sales of the Company's own branded goods
were $102,423.  Revenues for 1997 were derived from an engineering contract
with Panasonic in the amount of $864,000 and contract manufacturing services
including sales of SecuriKey products of $319,167.  The SecuriKey business
was sold to a prior employee/shareholder and no revenues 
were recorded in 1998.

Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 1998 were $900,129
compared to cost of sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997 of
$626,449.  Costs of sales as a percentage of sales increased from 53% to 85%
in the current quarter.  The related gross profit for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 was $157,945 or 15% of sales compared to $556,718 or 47% of
sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997.  The decline in gross
profit  resulted from a change in the mix of revenues (fee for services
verses contract manufacturing) and costs charged to engineering contracts
that were not billable. 

The Company incurred research and development costs of $1,272,763 during the
three months ending June 30, 1998, relating to projects for customers for
which there were no present contracts and additional resources were expended
for the development of the Company's proprietary radios.  Included in the
$1,272,763 is $305,651 of purchased research and development expense arising
out of the acquisition of radio technology in May  1998.  The amount spent
on research and development for the quarter was greater than the total
research and development for the three month period ended June 30, 1997 of
$424,417. 

The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998 increased to $1,269,140 from $696,254 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1997.  Such increase reflected the
substantial increase in the number of employees of the Company to
approximately 90 in the current quarter which was reduced by 20% subsequent
to June 30, 1998 from approximately 50 during the three-month period ended
June 30, 1997.  In addition, the Company increased the number of its higher
paid employees as a result of acquisitions.  The Company also increased
staffing in anticipation of the launch of the Company's proprietary radio
products.  The increase in costs was also attributable to its maintenance of
duplicate administrative facilities and related administrative expenses by
virtue of its two business locations in Utah.  Management anticipates the
elimination of duplicative administrative efforts by consolidating into one
facility during October, 1998.  Also, included in the $1,269,140 is $76,858
of non-cash compensation relating to the grant of stock options as discussed
below.  

Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 increased to $92,594
from $13,606 for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997 which increase
was attributable to the greater amount of the Company's outstanding
borrowings during the current quarter.

The Company's net loss of $2,598,784 for the three months ended June 30,
1998 represents a increase from the net loss of $974,041 for the quarter
ended June 30, 1997, as a result of the above items.  

During April 1998, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of
unvested employee stock options at a price of $0.01 per share. These options
were granted during the fourth quarter of 1997. The repurchase enables the
Company to discontinue charging the difference between fair market value in
the stock at the time of option grant and the option exercise price to 
operations.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's liquidity at June 30, 1998, decreased compared to June 30,
1997.    Current assets increased by $815,901, although, short term
borrowings increased by $3,284,583.  

In order to sustain operations, the Company borrowed $2,500,000 pursuant to
an offering of units consisting of (a) its Senior Secured Notes, maturing on
or around May 15, 1999 and bearing simple interest at the rate of 16% per
annum, payable quarterly (the "Notes") and (b) warrants to purchase 250,000
shares of the Common Stock exercisable for up to five years from the date of
issuance at an excise price of $2.50 per share (subject to adjustment under
certain circumstances, such as stock splits).  Moreover, in the event the
Company fails to pay the Notes at their maturity date, the Company can be
required to issue warrants to purchase up to an additional 333,333 shares of
the Company's common stock exercisable for up to five years at an exercise
price of $2.50 per share (subject to adjustment under certain
circumstances), payable at the rate of 83,333 shares of Common Stock for
each 90-day period thereafter during which such default continues.  Such
offering was made in a private placement transaction exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Nevertheless, in
management's opinion, the Company will not be able to satisfy its needs for
additional capital through borrowing, but will be able to meet these needs
only by issuing additional equity securities.  Thus, the Company anticipates
obtaining additional financing of at least $5,000,000 through the sale of
its equity securities but no such financing has been consummated. Moreover,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain any
additional capital or, if so, on terms acceptable to it.

On December 19, 1997, the Company received initial orders for equipment from
Williams Telemetry, a Williams company. The orders cover a variety of
products, such as the WinGate(TM), radio transmitters and receivers and
spread spectrum transceivers. These radio products were designed by, and
with the WinGate, will be manufactured by the Company and will be used by
Williams Telemetry through its information gathering system. Initial
shipments began during July, 1998 and are anticipated to increase
significantly during calendar 1999. Total shipments under the contract are
expected to be completed in full by the end of the year 2000. If all
expectations are met, sales under the orders would potentially reach $70
million. Order quantities and shipping dates, however, are subject to
adjustment by Williams upon 90-day notice prior to the scheduled delivery
date, if its customers or other factors beyond its control make such
adjustment necessary. At the present time, therefore, orders can be
considered "firm" as to quantities and delivery dates only with respect to
units scheduled for shipment in the following quarter. 
 
The Company also contracted with Williams for project management and
engineering design and support services relative to the Williams Telemetry
network on a fee-for-service basis.

Outlook

The statements contained in this Outlook are based on current expectations.
These statements are forward looking and actual results may differ 
materially.

Management believes that, as deregulation of natural gas and other utilities
continues, multiple utility suppliers will be serving a given city,
neighborhood, or industrial park.  Consequently, it will become more
difficult and time consuming for utility companies to read meters as they
will generally not be the provider to every user in the city or neighborhood
which will increase the cost effectiveness of reading utility meters
remotely. Management believes that the Williams Telemetry Network, described
in detail in the Prospectus dated February 17, 1998, is a viable alternative
to the current practice of manually reading meters. Additionally, management
believes that William's position as an affiliate of a major transporter of
natural gas in the United States positions it to successfully market its
telemetry network, which currently is designed to use collector and repeater
radios supplied by the Company to gather and transmit data.

Management believes that the Company's relationship with Williams will
result in significant increases in sales of its radio products for use in
the Williams Telemetry Network. Significant increases in sales, however,
would lead to working capital requirements which would not be provided for
from funds generated by the initial sales of the products. The Company is
currently investigating the prospects of a private placement and ultimately
a secondary public offering to meet its working capital and operating needs.
However, there is no assurance that sufficient capital or any capital will
be raised from such endeavors.


The Company entered into a 7-year lease for a 34,000 square foot facility in
West Valley City, Utah.  Occupancy date is October 15, 1998.  The Company
will consolidate its American Fork, Utah and Salt Lake City, Utah operations
and staff into the new facility.  Management expects the new facility to
provide sufficient manufacturing and office space for the foreseeable
future.  However, if additional capacity were required, management would
consider out sourcing a portion of the manufacturing overload.  

If a portion of manufacturing is out-sourced, the Company may lose some
control over the following areas: cost, timeliness of deliveries and
quality. However, by out-sourcing a portion of its manufacturing, the
Company could avoid delays and costs associated with the expansion of its
own facilities. The magnitude of any expansion of the Company's
manufacturing capabilities that is required would be a direct function of
the sales increase and manufacturing overload, both of which are unknown at
this time. 

The Company anticipates an increase in revenues from the sale and
manufacturing of the Company's proprietary radio products.  The Company will
market a line of radios to OEM that incorporate them into products such as
wireless smoke and security alarm systems, ambulatory patient wireless
monitoring systems, retail point-of-sale systems, and the like.  The Company
has begun providing initial sales samples, and believes there is strong
customer interest for the products; however, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to manufacture or sell sufficient quantities at
adequate gross margins to achieve profitability.

The Company completed development under a contract with Kyushu Matsushita
Electric Co. ("KME") that calls for royalty payments upon shipment of
certain KME products.  Management believes shipments of KME products
containing the company's technology will begin during the third quarter of
1998, and that royalty payments from the contract will begin during the
fourth quarter of 1998.  Additionally,  management intends to enter into
follow-on  contracts with KME , whereby the Company receives fees during the
early stages of the agreement and is entitled to royalties or gross profit
splits based upon its customers' sales of products into which the technology
has been incorporated. It is management's intent that the fees received will
cover the Company's costs. However, these fixed fee arrangements may not
cover all of the Company's costs incurred in fulfilling any such contract.
Royalties or gross profit splits resulting from sales of products using the
technology developed under the contract would enhance the Company's
profitability if and when received.

In anticipation of obtaining additional design and development contracts,
management must continually recruit and hire additional RF (radio
frequency), software, firmware and digital engineers. It is extremely
difficult, time-consuming and expensive to find engineers qualified in those
fields. There is no assurance the Company will be able to locate and hire
such qualified engineers. Associated with the hiring of each engineer is the
need for test and development equipment, software and work stations, which
increases the Company's cash requirements.

In summary, while management is optimistic about the Company's future, it is
fully aware that anticipated revenue increases from product sales, design
and development contracts and royalty income are by no means assured, and
that if such increases do materialize, the requirements for capital are
substantial, for which there is no present commitment.   Moreover, there can
be no assurance that such capital or other financing will be obtained when
needed, or, if so, on terms acceptable to the Company. 


Impact of the Year 2000

Many computer systems experience problems handling dates beyond the year
1999. The Company continues to evaluate its computer systems and believes,
based upon representations from its software suppliers, that its operating
systems are substantially year 2000 compliant. In addition, the Company is
implementing validation procedures designed to evaluate the year 2000
exposure of its significant supplies, other vendors and customers whose
systems may impact the Company's operations. However, it is impossible for
the Company to monitor the systems of all with whom it interacts, and there
can be no assurance that the failure of their systems would not have
material adverse impacts on the Company's business and operations.
