        Paddy;

        My bet is that the X-Prize site will do another webcast like the did for the first flight. If so then I'd also bet that the NASA cable channel will simulcast it as they did the first flight.

                No audio on the webcast, but it was actually better this way, the talking heads never get it right. They are really low now, the Alphajet is with it now.

                368000+ feet... Nice.
