All: One point wrt service providers and costs/network coverage;

What is to keep the sp's from programming the phones to switch to the sats on the event of leaving their coverage area? This would drop the roaming agreement requirements with other providers and simplify life. The sp's have already contracted for minutes - its a use them or lose them set up. They may be looking at the G* portion as a loss leader to keep people on their network, reduce churn ect.
