BDay and Mide...is the campaign targeted toward the VC crowd or the retail investor? If it is those with deep pockets, could that mean a campaign is in the process of being formulated behind the scenes and the folks at our level may or may not ever see that level of doc with a business plan and other tidbits until further down the road?

I keep thinking back to what Clark said in CO...the funding for these sort of things usually comes only after the DOD or such entity has given the seal of approval by confirming with actual orders for the stuff. That would mean the widget cert must happen first and maybe even the payload demoes too.

We still don't know if GSAT's delay for the Oct batch of sats is affecting their test plans and how much the hangar mishap has delayed things as well. Things were progressing nicely until that, but what can they do except press forward.

A ground station contract for GTC as well as increasing revs from the activation of existing North American ones after the French OK might be a nice addition at this point that could get the shareprice moving again. But I still don't know how much GTC revenue was retained for WSGI's side of the deal since it sounded like the majority of existing accounts were transferred to the UK operation of GTC as part of the deal.

BDay...<What are your thoughts on the timing of creating the grand marketing plan that will provide WSGI an introduction to the world? Also, do you recall the method of paying for the plan? >

I presume you heard what I heard that Estrella had three different competitors at the SHM that had marketing proposals on his desk for consideration.

I don't recall him saying anything about cost or how it was to be paid.
