Maurice, two comments on your latest rants which I assume are written by candle light as you turn the hand crank on your generator!
I don't understand your point about power on the birds. You know very well and good that if nothing else limits a bird's life, its power supply will. The majority of R&D spending is focused on extending useful life by extending power and folks are trying some pretty wild stuff (Boeing and flywheels, for example). So there isn't a "problem" with the G* birds (although there was for a while) it is just that they are the beneficiary of CDMA's variable power usage and will be buzzing around a bit longer in the bargain. What are your worries, mate?
Second, Readware recently responded to my concern regarding latency effect when GEO birds are used for telephony. Seems LM has cranked out some technology that gets stuffed into the handset that overcomes the problem. And wouldn't you know it--damned if it won't be ready by the mid/late 99 G* GEO launch. Ah, Bernie--timing is everything.
Regards, Mike Doyle
