Oliver, I meant for the auction system to be in the retail shops too, so that for a small fee, the retailer could put the customer's price in the auction. Or they could buy a higher priced one right there and then from shop stock and go on their way, switched on. Most people don't have the Web and would need guidance on the auction anyway, so this makes it easier for everyone. Of course the internerds could just bid from the privacy of their own home with delivery direct to their door. Sure, I meant a single Website. [Making this up as I go!] Or maybe two, or three. Qualcomm, L M Ericsson [Orbitel] and Telital would each control their own website. Anyone see anything wrong with it? Vodafone just wants the handsets out to their customers so they should support it. So should the others. Then they'll rake in the money from terrestrial and Globalstar minutes, pinching customers from terrestrial only by the million. Maurice

P-----g George Gilder says processing power will be at the periphery. That means the device in the subscriber's handset. That means it will do things which the subscriber wants. That means saving them money while finding movies, babes, booze and beds. I just thought I'd call in the big guns to support Peripheral Pricing Processing [TM]. GG says "Dumb networks, smart at the edge". "Wide and cheap". Stuff like that. The scarce resource is the brain and time. PPP [TM} can save the subscriber brain strain, time and money. I rest my case [for now]. Maurice
