James, did you see Rutan's interview with Jim Skeen?
http://www.dailynews.com/Stories/0,1...237427,00.html

An excerpt:

"For suborbital tourism, you've got to give everyone a large window
and a seat close to it, and you have to give them a lot of room," Rutan
said. "I particularly feel 100 kilometers is not good enough. You've got
to go to 150 kilometers (about 93 miles) and give them time to unstrap
and float around."

From the article I got the impression SS1 is just the beginning.
