Perhaps you would like to explain this to China Space Comm - the Chinese service prover who will have
3 gateways, with the intent of using these to a geat extent for WLL type deployments. Also, to Rotelecom
- the Russian service provider who is also deploying 3 gateways to cover the enormous gaps in service
there using G* as a WLL type solution. I also quote your post that the HNS system will suffice "For users
with low-traffic requirements"...

Bloomberg. Iridium Declares Default on Bank Loans Totaling $1.5 Billion

Washington, Aug. 11 (Bloomberg) - Iridium LLC, the cash- strapped
satellite-telephone company, said it defaulted on its $800 million syndicated bank loan and a $750 million
bank loan guaranteed by Motorola Inc.

Last week, Chase Manhattan Corp. declared the $800 million loan in technical default.

The announcement wasn't unexpected, analysts said. The crucial date for Iridium is Monday, when it must
make an interest payment of $90 million on $1.45 billion in bonds.

Iridium shares fell 3/8 to 5 15/16.
NYSE/AMEX delayed 20 min. NASDAQ delayed 15 min
