Glenn, >>you sound upset. <<

hehehe... you really made my day with that line. But I thank you for pointing it out, since I didn't realize that I was coming across that way.

>>I thought it sounded good.<<

And it does sound good, like you say. Too Good. That's the problem. Not saying that it isn't achievable. And I can never forget how inspiring it was to read the Manhattan Project the first time around. It just has a slight ring of desperation to it, like the yelp one lets out during the third time going down. A last-ditch marketing approach effort didn't altogether escape my notice, is what I'm getting at. But... I do like the idea! Maybe they have a real winner here. Let's see what the technology analysts say about it in the morning.

Regards, Frank Coluccio

ps - Guess I didn't seem any more up this time around either, did I? ;-)

To give everyone a clue as to how big this technology is,
according to today's IBD (Investor's Business Daily) "Sprint
has applied for 1,000 patents related to the technology,
which uses wireless and conventional networks."

Today's announcement is huge; however, the real benefactors
IMO will be Cisco and Lucent who acted as direct consultants to
Sprint.

Good luck to all, Allan
