Frederick, You seem to be more aware of the inner workings of Nextel than most of us. Is it safe to assume that Nextel knows that it cannot rest on its DC advantage indefinitely? A follow-up question is: Given the history of innovation at Nextel, shouldn't we also believe that Nextel is working on something else to maintain its competitive advantage? The dual-mode and data phone /products don't qualify, since others carriers have similar products in the pipeline. Or, having established its place as a "top-three", is Nextel content with status quo? By the way, which company produced the package to do voice over Internet (the Israeli company)? I know of several companies; I have a small investment in one which is starting out with fax, but will be voice capable. The regulatory issues are just as big as the technical ones. Thanks, Rob
