Ellen, I was wondering if this was slightly different from previous announcements?
<Computerless Internet 019 portfolio channels include news, finance, e-commerce, communication, personal productivity, entertainment and travel.

Similarly productivity services are enabled through Phone.com's versatile PIM and UP.Web applications. Other channels within Computerless Internet 019 portfolio showcase Internet auctions, tele-voting, ticket reservation through Korean Airlines, job ads, games, event reservation and automated customer care. >
I don't remember mention of Push technology? Is this a simple variation on their basic theme, or a new product? Any ideas also on whether a browser has to have specialty functions for doing games?
Also, with the talks of Bell Atlantic and Vodaphone working together, you have to wonder what this will mean to PHCM. BA is a very special customer to phcm and I have never noticed Vodaphone as a customer. It would be very favorable to gain VodaPhone, and negative to loose BA.
