I'm in VSAT too, for all of the reasons that JMD mentioned. One issue to watch is how they are moving into the commercial space. I think the stock has been relatively flat because they have not been as successful as hoped at growing their commercial side. I heard a rumor (but haven't confirmed it) that they fired the guy who was head of the commercial sales, and are hoping to do much better the second half of this year.

So, from my perspective:
1) Heavy insider ownership
2) Technology makes sense to me, and has a clear potential market
3) Ability to sell commercially is not yet proven consistently

Almost bought more this week, but opted for GSTRF instead.
