You are absolutely right that you have more information on NT, LU and CSCO than i do. After all, I am just an entrepreneur in telecom business who works 12 hours a day running my business in Italy and Germany. I am not going to argue with you on that point. However, I do have long history of marketing NT products, and in some cases competing against other vendors who sold NT's products in the PBX world. And I have always been very impressive with their technology and support. Anyway, I don't want to get into personal exchanges so I apologize if it came across too harsh and personal. You have posted lot of good information so I should not be defaming you in any way...........it's just that sometimes I get the feeling that you are very biased towards LU. By the way, as you should know, having more information is not necessarily going to give you more edge Mr. Fun. Don't forget that although I don't meet with MR. Roth or pore over their financials, I actually spend lot of time in the market dealing with network engineers, managers, and Carriers that actually use NT stuff.........and my contention to you is that having a feel for what is happening in the field is quite important in assessing what's REALLY happening in the market BEFORE the results show up in the financials. NT from my experience is regarded higher than LU in all the countries I have done business in both for their technology, innovation, depth/breath of their product line and their support teams in the field. What that is worth going forward, I don't know -- but I do have a different perspective than you as I am in the long-distance business at the 'street' level.
