Yeah, it was an interesting article but the application, if it works, is 10 years away. I printed out the article for future reference. Usually I can't find things once I print them out but my wife put some ugly purple paper in the LaserJet and now the article glows in the dark. :-) It's not often that someone wins a lawsuit against Livermore. Maybe you ought to give him a free night's stay at the DooLittle Inn. I see we've got rain expected tomorrow so I guess I'll have to knuckle down and finally do my tax return as the tax man cometh next week. :-( Arnie

Is this article on the same topic as the USA today one?! upside.com Anyway, I wonder what the thoughts are about some smaller company like qwst or gblx buying nxtl. I think that is the next step for gblx now that they are going to have fro for retail sales of fiber capacity. Wireless would definitely be a plus but perhaps the debt situation would make a nextel acquisition untenable. I think nxtl would be advantageous for gblx because it has more international aspirations than any other wireless outfit with significant US coverage.
