Kurt, I don't see that as being competitive.

If I read this correctly, this requires the new NextTel
handset, which incorporates the UP microbrowser. Basically,
this is a specialized phone that has a tiny screen, allowing
you to get a limited view of a website/portal.

No VUI, no virtual assistant. Just a new type of phone
that can hook into the portal via wireless text display.

Broadly, UP and GMGC compete, since both target phones
as a means to access internet content. UP, however, requires
these new generations of phones, complete with screen. They
don't have a VUI play.
