Ian,as far as I know the following schedule still stands,but of course it could change depending on many variables as you know. May 31: Orbital Sciences Pegasus XL with ORBCOMM-2 mission (8 comsats) staged from Wallops Flight Facility, Va. Launch Time TBD.

The next launch was the end of May, but most likely it will be delayed. It is typical for ORBI to delay launches, but now most other satellite companies like Hughes and LOR are delaying due to meteor scares... It's just a scare, but ORBI has problems with power with the ORBCOMMS up there now. No sense in putting more disfunctional spacecraft in orbit until the power problems are corrected! I am so glad I sold 90% of my ORBI stock to buy DELL in the $70's only to be in the $90's today! DELL should hit $100 before earnings next week. Then maybe I'll sell DELL to buy my 90% ORBI back at $34 per share.... DELL is a GREAT buy, and they have been buying back billions of dollars worth of stock for the last few years. Earnings ALWAYS beat the estimate and right now SENTIMENT is GREAT, even in this flat marketplace...
