Anyone watching the Korean promo on right now? The Korean's are getting some VERY cool stuff from this satellite. Not just military, but some really cool PDA ability.

Damn. Round of applause for those KT promos. Never seen something so well produced and beautiful.

Anyone got a link to their site? We need to get a copy of that video promo "What a wonderful world" because they must have thrown $10m plus at that promo. Stunning. Absolutley stunning.

Its strange how in that video how they tie in real life so well into use of a cold piece of electronic equipment. One of the best PR clips ive EVER seen!

Now if only they can do this for warp drive :P

But their promo was rubbish :) "Remember, when you hear spacecraft seperation, followed by applause, and cheering, it means it's another Saab seperation success."

They need the KT guys.

Man these guys must be making some SERIOUS profit. I mean look at how fast they prepare and launch major communication sats. I read that their schedule was completely full for this year and most of next. I can really see why with this kind of smooth operation.

Oh and the webcast's graphics are alot better now! Now lets hope the others take note.
