We continue to be pleased with our results, said David E. Sharbutt, chairman and chief executive officer. The considerable investment associated with our network build-out is translating into excellent subscriber growth at an annualized penetration rate that is greater than the industry. This, in turn, is resulting in strong revenue growth.
