: : : I can understand this one. When we first saw it, the guy I went with couldn't figure that out eigther. But since I had read "The Return," I knew that Picard could still here the thoughts of the Borg. I just assumed that he used his own knowledge of Borg technology to figure it out. But when I went for the second time, I figured out that that wasn't what it was.
: : : Just before Picard hails the fleet, you here this sort of buzz of wispering. Obviously from the collective. If you listen close, you will hear the Borg re-directing drones to a damaged power core in some sector like 001 or something. Apparently the Borg were already heavily damaged by the Federation fleet.

: : EXELLENT, I never caught that.

: Because he still had some Borg implants in him from "Best of Both Worlds"...that's what I thought. I thought it was explained. Didn't Picard say to Troy "I can hear them"...something like that?

The Borg link is also carried along psychic waves, the subspace part is just a high bandwidth carrier. Compare it to local phone calls through copper and long distace through fiber optic.
We are AT&T of Borg- "Reach out and assimilate someone"
