Yes, indeedy, Jeeves may soon become a reality. I've been thinking it over and I've decided that he'll have to call me "Mr. Doolittle", emphasis on "Mr.". No more of this informal Arnie stuff. :-) Ken, you're right on about the International piece of the pie. NXTL is going to be a huge international wireless company. Coupled with NEXTlink, NEXTband, NEXT-Sat (Teledesic) and who knows what is NEXT, McCaw has a very big vision for wiring the world. He's a player and as shareholders so are we. While everyone is speculating about someone buying NXTL, I suggest that McCaw may be planning to be the acquirer, not the acquiree. As the infomercial barkers like to say, "Now how much would you pay?" We're in for some exciting years ahead as we watch NXTL zoom to the head of the wireless class. Along the way we'll have some fun with the boobirds. Arnie
