Two comments about the Smart(?)Money article.

The reference to Q's PR machine is laughable - if ever a company has a PR machine it's MOT. The analysts and business writers treat MOT like the (liberal - imho) press treats Democrats (sorry for injecting politics). Just look at how the I* debacle and what it could mean to MOT has been papered over.

The comments re: questioning the need for wireless data speed and that the 1000 hour phone would make GSM phones data sufficient were equally laughable (imho). Two years in the business world we live in today is like an eternity (pardon the slight exaggeration). If the last ten years or so has proven anything it is that you give entrepreneurs and new capability and they will create myriad ways to use it that will prove to by wildly popular and lucrative, and all in a lot shorter time than anyone could imagine beforehand.

Maybe the 1000 hour phone will be sufficient - if you do not mind leaving you phone on all night while you sleep to download yesterday's news.
