The largest problem that it faces is three of its markets use GSM, making roaming impossible for TDMA customers. Although it is a regional player, it will have to compete with national players in most of its markets. Slacker, thank you. This is interesting from the perspective of establishing, at least nominally, three ways BSM could go. Since (it is my understanding) that GSM is TDMA-based, the inability for roaming must mean that the separate wireless systems that comprise BSM must have been built and acquired in hodgepodge fashion. There has been some talk in the news reports re. the BS bid for FON that it might be content to take pieces of FON. Can we get moles placed with BSM's chief technical officers? Steve
