Editor’s Note: Following are the top-paid CEOs of U.S.-based companies in the wireless industry. Last week, RCR Wireless News ran the list of the top 10 highest paid wireless executives. This week we are featuring No. 11- 20. Some caveats apply: private companies are not included in this list. Also, companies must be U.S.-based and while some companies like Google Inc. are making inroads into the wireless space, the majority of their revenues do not yet come from wireless products and services.
