Jimmyo, Just returned from Western Michigan University Library, check THE (London) TIMES. If you think the U.S. coverage of this thing is big, really you should see the attention it's getting over there. In the next two years, the # of wireless users in Great Britain is expected to double (from 20% to 40%)! This deal is quite obviously being very well received in the U.K., analysts are raising their forcasts. Now, if only Nextel had a "Sprint- like" P.R. Department. I expect a nice strategic decision very soon. This 110 Billion dollar strategic merger sheds light on the real value this industry has upon our lives. And how amazing it is that so very few large players exist. I can tell you that there are at least a dozen European Telecoms that have the resources and the desire to "mate" with a company like Nextel. It won't happen at these (30's) bargain basement prices, however. I do like the idea of a WCOM/NXTL because I think Bernie Ebbers is such a class act. But a bidding war will drive this to levels that make this tiny. The very first (digital) wireless co. in the Hemisphere to arrive at positve cash flow, NXTL is ready for higher levels as a knife (through HOT butter)! Mike
