GlobalStar is not working so bad. They launched last year EIGHT new first generation satelites and 5 of them are activ of the moment. In Dec. 2007 GlobalStar had a coverage of about 75- 77% throughout the day. The problem is that the S-Band-Transmitter inside the satelite is degenerating faster than excepted, so that at the end some satellites could no longer be used two-communication .

Beginning 2009 the whole constellation of 48 sats ( 40 old and 8 new ) will be replaced by new 2nd Generations satellites. frist 24 should be launched in 2009 . Meanwhile GlobalStar operates still with a couple of faulty satellites ( these missing procentage to 95-96% coverage ) .

GlobalStar also offers an StarterPlan ( no monthly fee & no minimun usage )
you only have to pay an activation fee. Please feel free to contact me by mail ,
