fireteam revisited.... Telefragged telefragged.com #26 hot100.com appears to have entered an alliance with fireteam viz a viz fireteam.telefragged.com ...now if someone like Microsoft, EA, AOL..were to acquire fireteam...things could get interesting for TMSRs apparent preemptive strike into this genre...[and or perhaps TMSR will be the target]...we must admit the above sites appear to be substantially more compelling and appealing than thrustmaster.com and talknplay.com ...but ThrustMaster's gaming infrastructure is much richer and robust and worldwide and we wouldn't bet against Hausmann, frag-master, WON.net......FireTeam v. ThrustMaster...AT&T v. Western Union...Bell filed his [telephone] patent only minutes before elisha gray...and the rest was history...whomever dominates Internet gaming telephony....wins everything?...[$multi?]billion market cap?...game over?...........
