I guess when I said that I phrased it wrong. I still don't get Google's
product model. What do they have that makes anyone else any money?
Also, when I think of a company making money I want to know what the income
is WITHOUT the investor monies. I'd be making tons of money if I got to
count loans as income (and investor is just a banker at the end of the day).

Google is not losing money. It is profitable and has been for sometime.
In just the past four quarters, in fact, it reported upside surprises in
terms of EPS in each quarter. It also has a war chest of billions. In
2006 it generated about $10.6 billion in revenues...all with under
11,000 full time employees. In other words, they are generating about $1
million in revenue for every full time employee. Google is a
cash-generating machine Marlon.
Not sure where you get your data. I get mine from its Annual Report
filed with the SEC.

Too bad some many customers say that the service sucks.
I have a customer that moved. Loved our wireless so much she went with
another wireless provider in the new local. Clearwire.
I'm told there was no comparison. Oh well, with so much money to play
with....
Wonder if they'll ever actually earn real money?
This stock market thing amazes me. Google's loosing money and sitll
gets
investors. Vonage looses money and still gets investors. We MAKE money
and
can't get growth funds.

Yes, it is good. So good that they were able to let loose with a reserve
of an additional 4 million shares, with all shares entering the market
at the high end of their anticipated offer price range. Remember, they
also received $900M last year in what was the largest venture deal in
the U.S. to date. That came from Intel with participation from Motorola.
The details were not fully made public, but as part Motorola agreed to
buy their NextNet business. We also know that Intel owns like 33% of the
business. McCaw owns the same, though he retains 49% voting rights.
All this combined gives Clearwire a rough market cap of $3B dollars now,
which grows McCaw's personal net worth from about $2B to $3B.
So, if anyone though Clearwire was already aggressively trying to access
local BRS and EBS spectrum, you ain't seen nothing yet. Must be nice.

Is $600m good? I thought they owed that much in bank loans already.

Clearwire IPO'ed and got $600M, twice the price of the BellSouth
spectrum.
EarthLink is buying the Corpus Christi wi-fi network for $5.5M.
ELN will market TIVO.
