Q's involvement with Globastar may become a big negative. Some believe that multimode mobile devices coupled with the explosive spread of terrestrial infrastructure will make satellite systems obsolete before they have a chance to establish themselves. The Globastar thread in SI discusses this in detail.

Does anybody know how large is Q's exposure to G*? It appears that a large chunk of the $1.08 billion raised at the share offering may be used to finance G* activities.
