Yeah. As imj might say, "It could be exciting" if enough industry heavyweights got behind it and were really interested in promoting the service on a GLOBAL scale (including a long term plan for re-launch of the next generation satellites or constellation maintenance which seems to be right around the corner). Positioning wise, the service might have to have an a-national appeal (i.e. not be associated with any particular nation, but operated as a separate entity serving customers from any country with equal regard). Likewise, it would have to be omni-compatible with all wireless technologies and not be associate with CDMA, GSM, etc. regardless of what flavors of technology it does use. It has to offer something beyond current terrestrial wireless, but with all the benefits of terrestrial wireless at a reasonable premium. It would be a tough act, but with some creative financing, maybe its possible. Several companies might have to make concessions that they weren't willing to make the first time around. They could capitalize on the current uncertainty in the wireless industry to recruit some good resources to create a new identity that incorporates the benefits that currently exist in many facets of a fragmented industry. Saying that and doing it are two different things, though. It would not be an easy thing to do. LOL! This probably sounds very similar to what the drawing board looked like for Globalstar. Well, I guess they should just find people dedicated to overall project success and create an organization without conflicts of interest. - g/ng -
