Default Proposed Mobile Internet Service Interferes With GPS Units

BusinessWeek is carrying an article today that says that government
tests showed that the proposed LightSquared mobile service caused

There is big money behind this. I'd recommend writing your elected
representatives and voicing your concerns.
