BobRE, I'd like to add a fourth possibility to your list. Total VSAT-GEO sat based telephony systems costs are appreciably lower than G-Schlumberger solutions rural payphones. I have no cost data on either system so any clarification would be greatly appreciated. I still believe cost not quality or technical superiority is the most important factor for successfully deploying rural payphones in developing countries. For example, take a look at personal transportation in developing countries: bikes, scooters, stripped down cars, etc. I've spoken on GEO satellite links and hated it. Anyhow, the Gilat announcement might suggest that VSAT-GEO sat based systems adequately and more cost effectively meet the demands for rural telephony. BTW, RS long time ago suggested perhaps the most cost effective G rural telephony system: install a Qualcomm fixed site terminal, connect to local power, time calls with a stopwatch, and then collect money. Best regards.
