And one final point- surely the "issues" would be easier to sort out if he got on a plane and all involved were together, not half the world apart?

Its a very valid point and it leads to one we all should have seen way before now, The fact that Richie couldnt/wouldnt talk to Jon about why he walked really shows the issue being about Jon and himself.....
The next break in the tour, they should really get together and thrash it out, and without Nikki Lund anywhere near the place. Jon should leave his CEO hat outside and Richie should be given the chance to air his views without Jon waving a contract in front of his face etc etc....
Thats not to say I support Richie in this rocky patch, as I think tweeting lovelly messages and announcing to fans he was focusing on his clothing lines was out of order when thousands of us wanted to see him out on tour.
I do give a little credit to Jon however for his extra effort and 3 hour shows, which I personally think were brilliant, but would have been amazing with the complete line-up.......
But his "EDGE" comments were not the best thing to say, even though I do think they have been taken totally out of context.
All in all I think we all have a common "goal" in this affair and thats to get Richie back on board, and given more of a say in the output of the band.......
