RS--Helpful analysis. Thank you.

We should also not forget that the products have quality differences, as well as the cost differences, e.g.:

1. G*'s handset size allows the user to carry it in her/his laptop or attache case. The other products require the equivalent of a separate case. (Mini-M weighs 2.4kg, the HSD terminal weighs 25kg)

2. G*'s LEO permits "undelayed" conversations, vs. the GEO orbit's delays.

3. G*'s anticipated data rate will be 9.6 Kbps, which compares favorably to the Mini-M rate of 2.4 Kbps. The 25 kg HSD setup will get ISDN-type speeds of 64 Kbps.

4. How much do the various terminals cost, btw? I couldn't find it on the Glocall pages I visited.

Best,
JS
