<<Electronic components will never be completely eliminated. After all, the optical components are driven by electronics. I think that's JDSU's bag. I'd buy it before Iridium.>> That's a good choice, Jack, since Iridium is in bankruptcy. We're you intending to refer to GlobalStar or some other (or, "any") sat system? I'm only asking because I find your posts to be valuable and am wondering exactly which direction you were going with the "Iridium" comment. Best. ........VVVVVVVVVV
