Maurice, The handsets have cellular, right? They just can't switch to satellite mode in the middle of a cellular call (and presumably vice-versa). Unless one has been on the phone continuously from a trip pretty deep in the boonies, one is in cellular mode, and I wouldn't think skyscrapers blocking satellites are an issue. How many skyscrapers are uncovered by cellular service? I don't know, but I'd guess it's darn few and getting rapidly fewer. It might be handy to have the handset let you know when you're in range of cellular networks (a certain soft tone, for example), so that one doesn't use the more expensive satellite connection longer than one must. Though one would have to disconnect and redial to do that. I rather liked TManns application of Dr. Seuss, and I think he has good suggestions in the marketing department: the media trial and the articles on the conditions in which the phones will and will not work for their newsletter. Both good thoughts, say I. Cheers, Tuck
