marginmike - I am not sure of all the particulars of an exactly correct answer to your question, but one thing I think is true is the following : the Globalstar handset, because it is a "satellite" type thing, will be "big and ugly," compared to a strictly "terrestial" handset.

So, people will not be able to slip it into a pocket or purse (or belt holder that may or may not stay attached to one's belt) very easily.

Jon.
