Bernie, Please post the analyst's projections. Thanks. Also, I use Erol's as an ISP. They are fairly reliable, although they tend to slow down at peak East and West coast overlap times. I think Erol's may be local to Washington, D.C. I pay about $12 / month for unlimited access. Anecdote: I work part-time as an engineer (communication satellites). The full-time engineering staff has completed an evaluation of the Nextel PowerPhone (they were lent a few for trial) and have great things to say about it. I think the total group of users would be 30 - 50. They were going to sign up, but decided to wait for the new phone (early next year ?). Reason: apparently the group can lease phones @ $7/month; if they switch equipment (new phone), it costs @$50. So, they'll stay on their current provider until the new phones come out to avoid the switch-over charge. Rob
