<Basically, they've corrected the inconsistencies between the list and the map noted in post 11708 last week. > That looks suspiciously as though your analysis is used to identify mistakes! It really is surprising how un-Webbed the Globalstar business is. Dell is making a fortune by Web sales. The Globalstar business is a perfect candidate for Web sales. The items are small, the value high, the application simple, the manual can be on-line, the customers spread wide and thin, the customers are high-income people who are technologically oriented and certainly using cellphones and puters [unless they are out-in-the-bush types who of course would be sold by other means]. All of this would make Web sales an important means of selling. I think a few of these would sell in Zimbabwe right now! Of course the South African gateway is still not licensed. I suppose the appropriate fee has not yet been paid to the bureaucrat [plus his friends and family] who holds the rubber stamp and that's the problem. Globalstar last year told Valueman it was all go in South Africa and challenged him on even daring to question the issue of a licence etc. Credibility loss has been matched by a $10bn market capitalisation loss. Let's hope that gradually is reversed by actual sales of handsets and minutes. The Web presentation is vastly improved, but still not a constantly updated and extended information and sales source. It should be up to the minute in all details. Maybe the best way would be to ask Dell to handle Web sales! Maurice
