UPI reports: "Japan's Aerospace Exploration Agency said the H-IIA rocket was upgraded for the launch, permitting the satellite to stay closer to its geostationary orbit. Tokyo's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said he hoped the launch would exhibit the quality of Japan's rocket engineering, and that the successful launch would result in more orders from other global corporations. Following the launch, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries vice president Naohiko Abe said the firm plans to actively promote the H-IIA for satellite launches."

What you really want is a targeted mailing list of buyers, creating buy email lists with only volume in mind is a waste of time. Sure, it would be great to have a big list, but it's the quality of the list that matters, what you really need is an interested and potential list of buyers whom you can trust that will buy from you again and again.
