John: I'm in California so unfortunately don't get to hear the ads. As far as profitability I believe it will be sometime after mid-1999. I went long at $14.5 and am looking for the stock to parallel Nextel. This thing looks like a winner! Bill

I just bought one of the phones, and I love it, but I hate the newspaper ads, and I emailed the company to tell them (no response yet!) They have by far the best deal right now in Canada on PCS service, but you'd never know it, reading the ads in the papers - full page colour ads (Toronto Star: $60,000?) with some obscure message about wireless phones ringing but nobody to hear them, for example, with what looks like small print at the bottom of the page telling almost nothing about the services and the price! In contrast, I think their web site is superb: clearly showing "what you pay, what you get", and comparison charts with the other PCS providers. I'm not invested yet, but plan to be soon, but I'd like them to start putting out some good ads for their money!
