Gary,

Yeah, I know it sounds like sour grapes, but when you make acquistions (which cost more than $140M) based upon the expectation that the customer is going to follow through with the relationship - I guess that would justify a falling out.

As for GTE being progressive. Yes, technically speaking you're right, they talk the most progressive game in town. But it's my understanding that they aren't that progressive from a deployment point of view. Nonetheless, congrat's should go to ASND for getting the contract. Now the hard part begins. ;)
