Found this today about Globetel and Telecom 05

Here is the whole article http://www.viodi.com/

and the following is the Strat mention...


It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s a Strattelite

The most unique thing on the show floor was from a company called, Sanswire Networks, a division of a larger private label telecom provider called GlobeTel Communications Corp. GlobeTel has mostly been focused on providing telecom services, like long distance, debit cards, etc. for international markets. They are working on an airship that will serve as a sort of floating cell tower operating in the stratosphere, above the weather.

At 13 miles above the earth, it is close enough that it doesn’t cause delay, but high enough that it could provide service to 126,000 square miles of territory. As can be seen in this Discovery Channel video, they are currently building the prototype and a commercial version could be ready next year. They are working on military versions as well. If this works and is as cost effective as it seems like it could be, it could a revolutionary way to bring communications to rural and underserved urban areas. I was thrilled as I met their CFO – Chief of Flight Operations – who is responsible for, literally, making sure this project flies.
