Here it comes - Walled Garden, controlling the customer, charging like Globalstar, sign-up by subscribers slowly like Globalstar, and just like Globalstar's "Iridium is not competition. It's a different market." : <MediaFlo executives say they're not threatened. They say the broadcasters' service is complementary to its offering. "I would argue [the broadcasters' approach] is not a direct competitor to MediaFlo," says Omar Javaid, vice-president of MediaFlo International. "These services can happily co-exist. They are complementary." Javaid points out that today, 85% of Americans not only watch local TV stations at home but also pay for extra cable and satellite channels.>

It was quite obvious that Verizon and other telecom companies would do as they always do = over charge and under deliver.

MediaFLO has barely been born. Yet another opportunity being strangled at birth.
