Haler: Well okay, but only because you are insisting

1.) At this point I will give you the CDMA over TDMA.
2.) I*'s technical equipment being in the air is actually an advantage
for defense department purposes (Less prone to sabotage). This
could be an inroad to other government contracts.
3.) I* has also announced several alliances with established telcos.
I believe that I have pointed this out several times.
4.) I* has never officially announced what their price per minute will
be. However, they have hinted at prices as low as $1.50 per minute.
5.) Yes G*'s handset will be much cheaper.
6.) Without the chips how will G* overcome the problem of different
systems?

I wholly agree with your wisdom in investing in both. However, I am
hanging on to both for the long term because regardless of how thoroughly we may have studied these companies and how strongly we may feel that one or the other is much better there is still no telling what the uneducated masses will do. At that point it comes down to who markets it best.
