I do not understand the part of your message highlighted below:

Intrado is making a lot of noise around AT&T being a customer. What they are doing is only supplying the Nomadic users with those services as a substitute for AT&T's own in-house and already in place solution able. This is a key point that seems to get overlooked when others are commenting about Intrado.

According to the release back in July the deployment of Intrado(R) V9-1-1 Mobility Service is in place to support AT&T's nomadic users, and users with telephone numbers foreign to the local rate center (i.e. out-of-area), as well as some fixed-location users not covered by AT&T's own service footprint.


When related to VOIP, I understand that Intrado's product will enable e-911 location whenever T's standard 911 service cannot do this--such as for those "nomadic users" who use a phone number foreign to their area. This is what the FCC mandated and T and other service providers are scrambling to provide.
