Another point to mention is that with Hypercam 2 the planes will fly at a much higher altitude. That's an important point because capture time decreases. Then they can either choose to capture more area or capture metro areas more often.

I personally don't believe Paul would be joining a competitor. If he wanted to maximise his wealth he could stay at Nearmap and enjoy the fantastic options. I think he'll be doing something else but keep an eye on his LinkedIn profile.
