    So far, it appears not. I did listen in, so I can offer a summary of what I thought were the relevant points. Others might wish to add or correct me if they think I got any of it wrong. Anything in brackets is my thoughts.

    UK margins will be "a little lower" than they are in Australia although still high at 60-70%. However he was very positive on the quality of the partners Sky and QVC and the substantial free advertising that they will be providing.
    (IMO our share of advertising in Australia for the JB launch was significant relative to units sold and would have had a significant impact on our overall profitability. My expectation is that even with margins a little lower in the UK, the overall profitability in the UK should be higher because of the relative substantially reduced need for advertising from MWR. The higher sales volumes will also help with overall profitability.)

    When asked about expected volumes in the UK he said that he would expect three times the volumes here but then added that he thought it could be much higher than that.
    (I would agree with him and add that I believe it will probably be much higher than three times because of the much greater and more consistent advertising that these partners are likely to provide - QVC in particular for tv advertising.)
    QVC will be providing 30-45 minute segments dedicated to spacetalk on their shopping channels.
    (While many of us men don't watch shopping channels, the same can't be said for "mums" and they are our best target audience for advertising. In the interview Mark gave - link at the start of this thread, referring to QVC, he said "at any point of time they have 100,000 people watching their show". That's a big audience for those times when they air a 30-45 minute segment dedicated to Spacetalk.
    IMO this is a game changer for MWR for both sales volumes and for profitability).
