It is a shame that enterprise has been given the death slot for season 4, although upn is kind on programes its still fairly terminal. The latter half of season 3 is getting rather quite good the continued storyline does make you want to watch next weeks to find out what is gonna happen even though for the most part you can work out the outcome. They need more alliances in it though I was glad to see the andorians come into it as it made it more than just a earth ship sadly they were only around for an episode then went.
I think this whole xindi business was scripted because people were complaing about them medeling with the timeline in season 2.
First contact did leave a good plot line open for this prequal to be done they just havent quite got it working.
The similarities between the NX-01 and the akira class are distintcly there.
apparently a pad was found from first contact thingy with akira specs on it but it does seem abit strange they got the shape but none of the internal gubbins.
Looks like they'll be heading back to earth for the end of season 3 / start of 4 so hopefully we shall see more friendly ships and nx-02 etc working. Actually the ship itself isnt on its way back its only archer in the xindi ship.

I do like enterprise and it has got better and is really starting to find its form of late, although I do have a problem with it, it shouldnt be called enterprise ! They have loads of names to choose from why that one. Theyre are only 6 enterprises in the previous timeline but now there is 7 and all refferences in the other series conflicts with this.
Excelsior would of been a fine name.

As for the borg stuff mentioned, they were killed off but did get out a message to the delta quad. but nothing will happen on that till tng era.

There should really be more stuff on the alpha and beta quadrents. I sure do hope the delphic expanse goes away when they've finished with all this as its not on the normal galactic maps.
