>>in other words, the downlink is broadband, but the uplink isn't - which is fine for most applications, unless you happen to be trying to upload a big file from inside a plane.>> Globalstar link is 200 kbps with possible upgrade to 800 kbps. I don't know what speed is broadband. Arun

Mr. A: I will take all the positive % moves (yawns) I can get! Do you think the street would yawn if a new player stepped up to add some bucks to the pot? This continues Bernies desire to be the wholesale supplier of services. Whether it be G* or C. He has no stomach for the constant "pumping" (PR) required for a public services system. He is much happier to sit back and supply all the upfront companies as they slug it out with the public. (Much in the way Qualcomm is sitting above the crowd suppling all the teleco manufacturers with CDMA and letting them distinguish themselves from the rest of the pack.) I like the idea, but at times it is tough to hold the line when all around is FUD. Bernie could be more straight forward in commenting on slips to the right, but it is hard to do with out assigning blame and doing that is not something which would endear G to its customers. Tough spot to be in no doubt. I prefer the "put your head down and make the system work" approach to the 'Spin Machine' effort so much of the world seems to be involved in. Short term it is painful, but presents one heck of a buying opportunity IMO. Besides, as a LTB&Her, I dont need the stocks (Loral/G*) to go up until I get ready to modify my weightings for retirement. ( IF the stock is reacting to my retirement requirements - you all have a long period to accumulate !) Jeff Vayda
