RS - The costs came from the G* cost calculator. These costs are expensive imho. If they want to get people using the system they have got to get IDD down to well below $2. There are loads of Europeans who visit say Central america and would dearly love a G* but who is going to pay over $3 per minute. It just is going to inhibit both new subscribers and existing usage rates. G* pls do something about these costs of over $2 per minute. We might just as well have this discussion publicly as this is going to really slow down growth. The days of big per minute chrges for IDD are over and that has to be faced. OK there might be no laternative to G* so then people will use it on an emergency basis. Companies just won't pay these big per minute costs and allow loads of use. When you've got a bunch of customer and cpapcity is an issue then OK ration by price but until then I think this will be a problem. Best regards, L
