Jack, Many thanks for keeping the thread informed on IRIDF. I have a quick question as a prospective investor. Have there been any projections that you know of as to rate declines and phone instrument price declines. Clearly the play here is for markets that go way beyond the current "jet set" price tag. I might mention that as an ex-pat living in Malaysia, I use a cellular phone with very inexpensive roaming service that is good for origination in all the countries I visit on a regular basis except Japan (of course), some of the former Soviet bloc countries (which I don't visit), and the U.S. Call quality is really quite fine except in Thailand and parts of the Philippines. I am hoping to see reports of truly extraordinary service levels from Iridium. Again, thanks for the continued "heads up" . Best, Stitch
