Re : LEO satellites offer a distinct advantage in terms of both cost and performance because their lower orbits place them closer together, reducing the number of satellites needed to complete the network It is the GEO satellites that get to have big coverage with a low number of "birds." But, because they (GEO satellites) are 22,000 miles up (or -- whatever the exact distance), you are stuck with the time delay problem. Also, I think you need more handset signal power to transmit 22,000 miles (as opposed to merely hundreds of miles). Jon.
