Maurice The web auction is a neat, pure capitalist idea. A few flaws: 1. We have to convince BS. This could be difficult, but he might read this thread and come back to this idea when his original one doesn't work. 2. When you sell them on the web what happens to our partners margins that they are supposed to make? They might not like this and I think we all agree that one of G* strengths over I* and others is its intelligent and cooperative approach to distribution of its services through existing major SPs. I regard to my "Account Manager" approach, I never meant that G* or its SPs should spend extra effort to promote its handhelds and minutes to end users. That infrastructure exists at the SPs and they should know what's best. The Telco and especially the mobile market is damn competitive and if G* partners, who are all very senior, haven't figured out how to sell phones/minutes yet then they wouldn't be where they are today. My point was that in the new regions, such as the back of beyond in China, G* should go further than "Hi, Mr Chinese Telecom, we have a cool service, would you like to use us? You do? That's great, sign here please." They need people hammering out deals that state quantities for future purchase, prices and infrastructure requirements such as installation of fixed phones. This is a difficult task, especially if you ask anyone who has ever tried to do business with the Chinese Govt. It could take a year for them to start installing these fixed phones or selling these handsets (which some will want). Let's start NOW!!!! This is where the volume is!!! Let's not leave it to priority 3. But there is a problem with this too.... We have to convince BS!! Oliver
