Yes, I am intimately familiar with filings and rule makings. It still comes down to a big yawn as far as MMDS...too little, too late...with LMDS breathing down its neck and DBS killing it on the video side. No income to play with, no 'new' and 'gotta have' it pizzazz to sell to the investment community. The market has spoken on MMDS stocks. ADSL lite is the final nail in the coffin. If you had Microsoft/Compaq in your camp, maybe a chance, but they are pushing ADSL lite with a billion dollars behind it. MMDS - too fractured, too many itty bitty players, and no ubiquity.
