Now, I know about the AOL deal with Hughes to build and interactive ability for satellite transmission. What about if they buy Iridium? Doesn't Iridium have its own set of satellites world wide but their problem is subscribers? Wouldn't a AOL-Hughes-Iridium deal look both smart and sexy. It would show AOL to be buttoned up by having a short-term "speed strategy" with the baby bells and a longer term "speed strategy" for satellite?
