[OZAPRS] Interesting

[Kev]

Mike, I have no problem in accepting your arguments but the question I 
really was asking was:

"Who amongst us is making intelligent use of in real time the data being 
propagated through the Igates"

My observations based on this list would appear to indicate that findu 
is being used to confirm where a user (operator/traveler) knows where 
has already been and confirms this through the use of findu. Yes the 
current system used by findu is reliant upon the Igates for the data it 
requires, but this is not a real time activity in the true sense. In 
fact what we have is store and play back. Can we say therefore that this 
is a real time mission critical, I think not.

I still think its a case of big boys and there toys, and willing to 
admit I am still a boy.
