Interesting new read out of Geneva:

telecom99news.itu.int

Quotes BLS as predicting 600K subs by y/e 2000 (gee, wasn't it 1M yesterday? But as some astute virtual math majors pointed out, 50K +12months*60K/month doesn't quite get to 1M)

Compares a G* call rate "as low as" 1.39/minute to Irid's 2.99

Says the conference is "rife with speculation about a possible linkup between G* and Teledesic"
