re: ericy openess: I have been kicked out of this Thread more than one time by suggesting ericy is a good match for CSCO. (I'd love ericy to get rid of their datacom dog)

Here in Europe convergence is not between data networks vs voice networks. It's between fixed networks vs mobile networks.

Operators will port those users that generate low revenue to mobile networks and put data on top of the wired networks to increase revenue. So, the operators would still be offering public service to that old lady that leaves in the country side and get down to business for the next next gen networks that elmatador keeps druming here.

My analysis of Iridium back in 1987 was that Iridium should be low cost voice only service and fixed, ground based newtorks would be used for data. It is going to happen, but not using satellite based networks, it is going to be using GSM.

I can't resist tapping my own back: My problme is to be right too early.
