CONCLUSIONS • HIDs provide quick overview of spectral evolution and reveal complex behavior • Variability properties map well onto HID. Sudden change in timing related to HFQPOs and radio flares • Jet activity maps well onto HID - anti-correlated with winds? • Neutron stars show similar evolution. However, above 0.2 LEdd they become crazy • Slowly completing our picture of states, allowing for more detailed interpretation
