I was aware that they had some sort of wireless already. Do you have any figures on subscribers and coverage? I was under the impression that it is small scale. Anyway, I think if wcom doesn't move soon quite a few up and comers will be after nxtl in a matter of months if not weeks. I also don't think anyone has overestimated the advantage of being first to market with a usable wireless internet product. It sure is a great time to be a nxtl shareholder!

"who knows, FON might decide it wants to get back into wirelss. the games continue."

FON never got out of wireless. PCS is a tracking stock of FON's wireless biz. If you read the fine print, you'll discover that FON has the right to buy back ALL of the PCS stock within, I think, 4 years of the "ipo" or whatever they called the transaction.
