No. NXTL is the only national player in 800 MHZ and there will be no others because the spectrum isn't there. The other national digital wireless footprints will be FON and T. That's it as far as I know. The rest are regional or patchwork. That's what makes NXTL such an exciting opportunity. For argument's sake, in 10 years let's say that NXTL is the number 3 national wireless provider. How big a company will they be? 20, 30, 40 million users? More? Any way you slice it, NXTL will be a huge company. And that's without NI. While we may be going through a gut check at the present, the future looks bright indeed. Arnie
