You expect people who don't know how to use a VCR and won't buy one to go out and buy a computer to hop on the internet?

Get real. The VCR market is an excellent indication of who will adopt the internet as an "appliance" industry. I guarantee everyone who has a WebTV box also has a VCR. If there is an intelligence test to see who can figure out how to log on, that VCR remote seems to be as tough as it can get. Yet 60 percent of the population won't touch it.

They are held back by social and economic forces. An article by Newsweek called them the Uberclass. The privileged who can no only AFFORD to use the technology, but have the smarts to use it as well.

Anyway, growth of the internet seems irrelevant with this stock. USRF's 0.00% share of wireless internet (rounded from nearest thousandth) does not seem to amount to much growth.

Skytel seems poised to dominate the market. They seem to be partnering with a lot of mobile hardware suppliers (i.e. 3com/Palm, MSFT, etc.).

How long since your last post? No one is even SPECULATING about this stock. It appears to have died.

Let's sell out shares to pay for the wake.
