Thanks for the insights, Dennis. Since you seem knowledgeable on this subject, I will try a few more questions.

Do you think the deal with Sprint would include an up-front fee from Virgin? If so, this could provide cash flow to help pay for Sprint's buildout.

Could Virgin have its eyes on something global? I seem to remember an article to that effect some time ago.

It seems to me that one reason Virgin chose to go with Sprint is because Sprint will have the capacity to sell. This seems to endorse claimed 1X capacity gains, no?

Finally, I think this is great since Virgin is a hot marketing company - a lot more than any of the traditional Telecos. And Branson has the cajones (sic) to try different things, be outrageous. I would think Virgin will be a very useful trailblazer for selling 1X capabilities creatively.
