Launch delays. It rained at Cape Canaveral! You'd think they'd have umbrellas. Somehow, water getting in the GPS satellite and making the wiring wet seems as basic as the soldering in the Long March and the plastic housings [which cracked] and the connectors [which didn't connect] in the Qualcomm handsets. This launch business looks as though it needs an infusion of quality control and maybe even outright thinking. O-rings get too cold and a space shuttle crashes. Zenit mooring rope isn't undone. Rain on the nose cone. Solder. These do not seem like rocket science. With the backups we have available, at least the service date shouldn't slip. Maurice PS: AMA, whew, we sure made a meal of your idle comment....//I'm not acting as an Iridium apologist, but how about posting information we can use... // I guess people are sensitive about not irritating good information sources. There was really only the exaggerated '3 pound handsets' and picking the highest price comments which were stretching a point. I'd put that down to poetic license - journalists don't fuss too much about being accurate [they need dictionaries for words like empirical and quantitative]. The important thing is for ICO shareholders to know that they will lose money if they launch. For no charge, I spent hours in this very thread [and the preceding one] warning Iridium shareholders such as Dragonfly and LarryL to save their money. Would they listen to me? No! Did they thank me? No! Did they pay me? Well, maybe the cheque's in the post. Or possibly the check's in the mail. Here is an official warning. ICO shareholders ::: DON'T DO IT :::
