Iridium has more bandwidth than any of the other systems, as near as I can calculate.

Furthermore, Iridium is global, and none of the other proposed systems are global-- they provide only regional access. (Including Ellipso, ICO and G*)

Iridium is not obsolete- it is the most cutting edge sat network ever made, and that it has had such success is a major testament to Motorola's ability to execute a huge project on time.
