On line sale of Globalstar phones now available from GMPCS:

gmpcs-us.com

GMPCS has extensively updated its G* material, and now includes detailed pricing and product spec sheets for equipment, including mobile, fixed, auto and maritime kits, and accessories. Appears ready to support on line ordering now.

There are a few internal inconsistencies in the site:

Re: commercial service it says: "Commercial service is now available. During "soft launch," which is expected to run until
February 2000, customers will receive a 50% discount on satellite air time. During the soft
launch period there is a possibilty that there will be periods of service interruption while the
Globalstar satellite constellation and hub stations are fine tuned. GMPCS expects to have
operational demo units available late this year, but has targeted February 1st as a start
date for commercial service. "

There are two coverage maps, the one linked to GMPCS home page is "old" (first release) G* USA map . The one linked from the FAQ is the same as currently at G* USA site.

There are no firm prices for air time provided.

All things considered, a big step forward....
