Laguna, This is the first development by a land-based wireless operator with a satellite venture. And no other than Sprint PCS will have a Vodafone presence in the U.S. (for the commodity user). NXTL is obviously the cream of the crop high-end wireless company, but Sprint PCS, selling through literally 1000s of Radio Shacks, will be cheap enough that it will be hard to say no to. The huge bandwidth they have distinguishes them from even Airtouch. And already, their quarterly ads are higher than Airtouch' best ever. Airtouch' best domestic quarterly ads were about 200,000 I think. Vodafone has 5 Million U.K. subs.. Mike.
