Raja I think you are unfairly putting G* in the same group as Iridium. They have very different business models. If you do your research you will find that G* cost per minute is going to be about 10 cents a minute. This will make their retail air price more then land based systems, however it will be a great compliment to CDMA systems. It is not trying to compete with land based Cell phones. If you dont understand that you dont understand their Biz model. Iridium is also much more expencive, and its handsets are uglier and more expencive(twice the price). Iridium also will have a 30% higher call failure rate. If you want to bash these companies, at least understand what your bashing. Tero, in all his propaganda, understands the fundimental model's of what these companies are trying to do. Unless you check your fact's you are just creating more noise on this thread. All of us appreciate negative post's, if they are thoughtfull. We need a dose of reality sometimes. However we dont need your Rhetoric!
