bryston: Ripping a new earhole in Ericsson accomplishes what? What is actually being done in the real world (not words) that has any impact? Ericsson shows every sign of doing little or nothing except at a snails pace. No push. Not even any plans announced, no production schedule made public, let alone any roll out of phones actually happening. Talk is one thing, action and results another. Best. Chaz

Guess I am missing something. Aren't phones necessary to use G? Isn't most of the world GSM based (so far)? If there are no GSM G phones available, what "use" is possible? If there are GSM G* phones, where are they and how many of them are there? Where can they be bought now? Isn't this important? If so, why silence from G* management and/or Loral management? Why silence from Ericsson? Why silence from the GSM operators? Best. Chaz
