Wrong. Iridium is lower LEO than Globalstar. Neither are the handsets much larger than Globalstar's. Neither does the handset need a lot more power than Globalstar to 'push a signal that far'.

Luckily for them, Iridium is no competitive threat. With analysis like that, they probably have no idea about ICO either.
