Thanks, Valueman.

I got a mild kick out of the implied double entendre (in my own mind, in any event) in the multiple footprint (multiple spot beams) depiction, in the following diagram:

204.144.156.47

Note the typo in the legend which states "full mess" connectivity, instead of full mesh connectivity.

I would be interested in seeing some modeling, showing projected throughput capabilities per user in each direction, plotted against gradual increases in uptake, and using some established message profiling assumptions. E.g., strictly email and casual residential surfing at one extreme, with full multimedia and soho usage at the other, with graduations in between. The acceptable use policy would also be interesting to review.

Also, the initial dual stationary model is at odds with Teledesic's approach. It should be interesting to see how earthlings will fair with each, and which would excel beyond the other. What's the latest with Teledesic? Any real knews there to report? Anyone?
