Rajala-- let's say you are right, and GSM is the godsend for telephony, what we have all been waiting for these many years. And that in comparison, Globalstar is a total farce, a total failure. Why do you come on the Globalstar board to tell us this? To save us money? To keep us out of a horrible disaster just waiting to happen? Or is it because you are short out the ying-yang on Globalstar? That I believe you are trying to help the uninformed avoid a financial calamity is as close to saying that I believe you are not short this stock.

Dear Rajala, My GSM drops calls all the time even where coverage is supposed >to be good. Basically GSM sucks but everyone uses it and puts up >with the dropped calls and I guess no-one ever bothers to try and >get refunds from the service providers.. I never have because you >just can't be bothered and so I guess that the service providers >get a lot more revnue as a result but who cares. I am talking about europe. do you have a GSM account in Europe? Are you speaking from actual experience of having to pay for this so called service? We I do and I repeat it is crap! My wife has a Qualcomm CDMA phone in Houston and it is infinitely better than GSM. No contest. Now admitedly that I am only saying that because I have actual regular experience of both systems!
