Mark Fowler and William whoever are in serious denial of the realities staring them right in the face re the looming m-commerce fallacies. I do not know how they sleep at night with some of the wacked-out investments they ride headlong into.

e-commerce is now known for a fact to be a complete disaster yet these jokers have convinced themselves since that failed them, they can now assume that that real people are going to pay $2.50/minute to sit in the park and peck endlessly at tiny stupid b&w cellphone keypads looking at tiny displays that are slow, limited and boring and unstable ("whoops, you are disconnected, start over again! ") to order big ticket items nobody has ever succeeded selling over the fast, land-based, ethernet e-commerce networks. Even though there are very few WAP-enabled web sites, and even 20% or more of those sites do not work.

Sure William. Sure Mark. It will all work. Now go back to sleep.

To everyone else:

This is the internet. Watch out what your kids look at ont eh internet and watch out very carefuly where you type in your credit card info, and also watch out what investros you fololow because this is the INTENET, my friends, this is the WILD, WILD, WEST...... and if you want to lose $500k in three mos like Mark did, that's just great. I guess that means you are very wealthy.

Sure, everybody's got a hungry heart, but these joke co's that William and Mark chase are pathetic. What does that say about their "investing" "discipline" ? Not much, I would posit.

heck, i work in this industry; I should be pumping along with Mark and William... only I can't. It's so glaringly obvious.

p.s, anybody- ask them about the $$ cost of all the new towers, forget about all the other infrastructure costs- and get ready for a total blank stare. "duh" These clowns do not have the foggiest notion.....
