Greg, I understand its a fibre deal but how does GBLX light the fibre? Is their system TDMA or CDMA? The best system would be CDMA. GBLX has a tie in with GSTRF (Satelite phone sys.)and GSTRF is using Q* CDMA equipment. These three companies fit together with Q* providing stations and CDMA technology, GBLX is the last mile provider according to the plan if they ever get the pioneer deal together. GSTRF is the satelite phone provider that will provide the no service 80 percent of the US with roaming service. GSTRF is CDMA and Q* will benefit from the relationship. Bell Atlantic, Sprint PCS both CDMA should shake out as the roaming partners. ATT phones won't work until they get the message and upgrade to CDMA. Imagine how many customers will switch to CDMA systems when GSTRF is up and running. The phone cost is estimated at $400 but its service everywhere. Does it really matter that the minute charge is expected to be $1.50? Lots of people need to be in touch and the roaming system means no separate phone. cdaiseyPhD@thinking.com
