Art, This industry is diseased with debt. PCS and VZ are no exceptions; in fact they're worse off because they've built national networks based on an unknown (and likely niche) market for data. The current data rates and applications are simply not compelling for the mainstream. Until a lot of that debt "goes away", this industry will be in a deflationary contraction (this process takes a long time!). Technology doesn't matter, paying customers do. PCS's growth rates are inadequate to sustain it, imho. Rob
