Leslie: Iridium has been performing extensive tests on all aspects of their system for months with great success. I have no doubt that they will pass any future testing with flying colors. G* on the other hand is attempting to go live without even their full constellation in space.

Further to what Leslie said, I heard the software used by the system is quite complex and is presently being checked up in every ground station. No problems detected in the Brazilian gateway.
