How about Thin Phones to be used as inter-galactic (okay, not inter-galactic) torpedoes to be fired from Globalstar satellites against Iridium satellites ?

The Thin Phones will destroy the other guy's satellites, then plunge hundreds of miles through the Earth's atmosphere, hit the ground at "terminal velocity" (160 m.p.h. ?), and maybe still function properly (?)

Jon.

Surfer Dude - Whip me, hit me, beat me, just don't make me call on GSM!

As far as knocking out those Irridium (pronounced "get Rid of 'em) birds, make sure not to hit the one I bought! Don't forget it cost me five bucks!

As for me, I can hardly what to see if the Thin Phone will pass the PCT!
