According to Aviation Week, NASA has determined that a rescue mission
to retreive the 'lost' communication satellites is feasible and is 
negotiating with the insurance companies and Indonesia for funding 
to conduct a rescue mission.  The mission could launch as early as the
end of this year.  Savings over redevelopment are estimated at $20 million.
