Dave,as usual an excellent post. Now I have some thoughts for you. Ever wonder why Bill Gates is so interested in China? IMO, because he knows that technology like CAOL has acquired will allow all English speakers to talk to 20% more of the world, and them to the outside world. Sort of like a universal translator as used on Star Trek. Remember the famous picture of Bill Gates wearing the Star Fleet uniform? I do. Also, ever wonder why we haven't heard much from Craig McCaw (McCaw Cellular) regarding China's wireless future? Well, this will connect the whole world together, provided they have the translation capability and an ISP! teledesic.com good feung shui to all, ;-) IC
