G* short argument (via yahoo thread) Top>Business & Finance>Investments>Sectors>Services>Communications Services>GSTRF (Globalstar Telecommun.) RcktScntst... by: PCSTEL 11189 of 11189 As a long time QCOM investor.. I am surprised that our paths have never crossed.. Hope you hold some QCOM from it's old "natural home" @ $50.. I had been a trading long G* since my begining fasination with QCOM several years ago... Look back through the messages of the last several months on the GSTRF thread.. I was the one who found that QCOM applied for the trademark "GLOBALTRACS" almost a year ago.. On the IRID thread I, debated Lawrence Cooper about G/I technology... "Bent Pipe" vs "Sat interlinking".. TDMA/CDMA.. But now... With the BK of I... It's now a battle of Debt loads.. Look at Maurice on the SI thread.. Hell he started the GSTRF thread on SI.. Message #1.. Even he has lost faith in the market for G services... Do you really believe that all of I* problems were marketing/technical problems??? Try to find someone that did not see/ nor were impressed with I* commercials.. Do you really believe that the "millions" of inquiries for I* were just never followed up on??? Do you really believe that I* is just going to go away??? That there will be no debt/equity realignment?? That a fiscally re-aligned I* will not be able to "blow away" G's pricing structure??? Do people really believe that a key advantage of G is it's ability to integrate a cell phone and a sattelite phone?? The MOT Iridium phone has this feature. What about a G* TDMA/DAMPS version for the big revenue market of Latin /South America.. How much IS-95/GSM is there in South America?? Chile/Peru... Pockets here and there... What about all the "global roaming" agreements between foreign operators, this really hurt the Sat phone business.. Would you disagree??? Can the G* system do a "Soft handoff".. or even a "Hard Handoff" between Terresterial and Sattelite mode??? So what is this "Big" advantage that G* has.. We know it is not going to be price.. The phones are slightly smaller... What is the advantage??? I know...it's because BS says it's different.. Like I said earlier... Look at the G* website... It says "Anytime, Anywhere".. IT IS A LIE... Marketing mistake #1. Good Luck, PCSTEL Posted: 8/31/1999 6:37 pm EDT as a reply to: Msg 11179 by RcktScntst3
