Sorry for my language, I was quite upset when I read his letter. If it really was trivial and very low cost to upgrade GPS receivers, then he should not worry too much about loosing much revenue. This sounds more like he made major investments in either Lightsquared itself, or into designing and qualifying compatible receivers, and hoping for a major payday which is not coming. There should be other solutions for LS such as allocating to a different sp ectrum etc to not lose "a $14 billon investment". Also his claims that GPS receivers will soon be obsolete anyway's are clearly not true of course. This reminds me about the futile episode of Edison electrocuting Elephants to prove his DC power grid to be superior to AC... bye, Said In a message dated 3/7/2012 09:03:10 Pacific Standard Time, robkimber...@btinternet.com writes:
