<<2) This is strange. He said that he could not give more detailed info on sales, because G* is dependent on the service providers for feedback, and that they have been reluctant to share sales figures for competitive reasons. I don't understand. Who are they competing with ?>> Hello, Russ. I don't particularly care for that line of reasoning ("competitive reasons") either; I haven't listened to the cc yet so I am going by what you wrote, which I fully trust. Seems to me that when a company is having pedal-to-the-metal success with something, they enjoy blowing their trumpet, since success seems to draw more success; people like to go with the winners, the snowball starts to roll downhill and builds critical mass and velocity (similar for uncontrolled failure). It's frequently when things are going crappy that you get the no comment type responses, for "competitive reasons" or otherwise. That said, I hope it isn't the case. Things do seem to be, at least, heading in the right direction from my viewpoint. Unfortunately, that isn't always enough. Best. ........VVVVVVVVV
