The media (and I mean quite credible ones) already started pushing things in another directions STU. I mean they do report the developments in Australia, but at the same time they do report other possibilities.
The Inmarsat story is highly questioned at Physics forums lately, Physics guys accuse them of having mislead the investigation. I mean look at what happens now, absolutely no debris anywhere and they keep on hearing Black box's sounds.
Yet on Physics forums one guy has analyzed them and he is absolutely certain they are fake.They are showing the world that they are indeed at 1 second intervals as they should be, that the frequency is at 37.5 Khz (actually not their spikes are at 32.3) but they forgot one very important parameter concerning the REAL BEACONS SIGNAL. The pulse length is too big and doesn't match the specs.
Here are the official Australian links for the signals:

I guess we have to wait a few more days, if nothing is found then we could all forget the plane is in the Indian Ocean.
