Hi Jim,

Here's a speculation on my part. Today, many cordless telephones here in the US are operating in the 900Mhz spectrum. With the ability of HomeRF to handle multiple voice lines at the 2.4Ghz range, could we be looking at the first step in a migration that might eventually free up the 900Mhz spectrum so it could be auctioned to GSM system operators who would love nothing more than to have the US spectrum allocations come into harmony with the rest of the world? It sure seems to make a lot of sense to me, though I don't really have a handle on all the various electronic devices that would have to be re-manufactured in order to accommodate such a sensible change in the US spectrum allocations.

Just wondering, Ray
