Excerpt from a Washington Post interview with John Sidgmore of WCOM:

Fairfax, VA: Why does MCI Worldcom seem to be avoiding the wireless
market like the plague?

John Sidgmore: we traditionally viewed wireless as a consumer-only play
and not an important part of the business bundle. This is changing now, and
as you see more mobile computers attached to the internet, this will become
an important part of the business spectrum over the next few years. Our
issue is that there is not an easy, financially rational way to acquire wireless
capability on the International scale we would need to support our strategy.
