RE: Getting MCOM upgrading to 128 kbps... Rex, I think this is all very cool, but let me ask you a question. You say the getting to 128 kbps will be the proverbial straw in the camel's back. However, when MCOM first rolled out ricochet, 28 kbps met or exceeded the norm, yet people did not exactly beat down the doors. Why would things change? I agree that getting to those speeds is a necessary condition for success, but I question whether it is a sufficient condition. Mind you, I don't care about cashflow right now, especially given the new debt financing. But, what I would like to see is healthy sub growth, and not just big percent increases over a small base. Nothing would make me happier than to believe that getting to 128 kbps is the key to that growth.
