Jim: All I know is this elephant is showing a heck of a lot more signs of life than Iridium ever did.

...And can we also take heart in the fact that Iridium is one tough sucker to kill?

If G* is half as tenacious, we will all do very well.

Jim:

Is G*USA paying for the entire cost of the current national ad campaign? I thought that G* was paying for a portion.

TIA.

Jim, thanks for the good news. I too am confused with the evidence on one side that indicates we're in the crapper, only to emerge - if at all - in sorely diluted state, and evidence like you've posted that suggests the machine continues to hum along, apparently oblivious to its impending demise.

My thinking had been that without a major announcement, or signed contract with government or large corp, we would face restructuring end of next quarter or very early 1st Q. Is it possible that the various distributors are moving enough product that we can double subscribers this quarter? If so, that would be very encouraging. I know the big contracts are coming, so if we can continue to stumble along for the time being just selling onesies and twosies to the general public, we're in pretty good shape. Maybe that's what those national ads are for, to bolster the independent outlets and give them credibility.

I wish data would add some numbers for us this quarter, but don't think we'll see anything meaningful there until 1st Q.

Thanks again.

Pierre

Jim - its / it's, lose / loose, AND busses / buses -- I believe "busses" means kisses.
