Cool! I have to say that the PowerSat website is one of the few sites of
startup space companies that has a professional, non-crappy look - and that
is a good start, nowadays the website of any kind organization *has* to
cause
good impression.

However, I tried to access the article of the Wall Street Journal and the
link was broken - and that is no good. Would anyone at PowerSat please fix
it?

BTW, what do you think are the chances of you getting funding? The vast
majority of venture capitalists are trendy types incapable to think by
themselves - they only imitate each other. Today it is fashionable to put
all your money in biotech companies (as it was fashionable to put all your
money in dotcom companies two years ago), but unfortunately there is no
fashion saying "put all your money in space companies" right now...
