Re : business numbers now (possibly) being similar for I* and G* (courtesy of I* equityholders being wiped out).

Even if everything you say is exactly correct (and I am not sure if that is true ...), we are still left with the simple truth that the technology of the Iridium system eats.

(I have confirmed from earlier posts that one can get away with using the word "eats" on SI without having the post deleted).

I am not an electrical engineer, but from reading numerous things written by those who know, it seems undeniable that Iridium really blew it when they decided to use TDMA and also have all sorts of high tech stuff "up there" instead of on the ground (like G*).

Jon.
