BREADTH I think its worth reading Barrons weekend article on breadth , seems it may not be as big a concern as I had thought . (imho) From what I gather , its more important we don't loose any of the big players , or see them fall off . mj

heya libby, I don't doubt that several other companies in the wireless space have clients internationally, or have "understandings" with companies who have such customers. I was referring to SSOL's focus specifically on global m-commerce transaction routing - if you want to buy or sell something from WAP phone in most areas of the world right now, the infrastructure is very limited - you need to use whatever brokerage is supported by your particular device, and that's only useful locally. Once HP's e-backbone is built, their customers (and any which use the SSOL middleware) will be able to choose any supported vendor and route globally - someone in the US could perhaps buy stock or whatever in Japan, etc. But you reminded me to check the XLNK chart for an entry, I've been waiting for that one to show some volume. I think the wireless sector is going to heat up again this fall. MfN
