Dan

The cost figures presented
were grossly inflated


Do you have any links to real (uninflated costs) ??

Iridium, outside of late
startup, will perform nicely for years to come.


Are you expecting no competition ??

Dan, I have no response to your comments because I'm just starting to learn about the sector. I subscribe to Scientific American, and a recent issue about wireless communication piqued my interest about the technology as a possible investment.

I'm assuming ComSat is that big suitcase telephone in advertisements where the guy in the three-piece suit is making a phone call in the desert. Maybe I'm wrong.
