Nord, Alan stated more then one time on Friday, including press, that NN is being shipping products to G1.We both know, if CSCO or other competitor, won this contract the story would be everywere. I could be wrong but I thought Alan said G1 doesn't want to say what it's up to since it doesn't want to give anything away to its competitors. If this is the case then G1 could be using other companies gear with no press release but you are correct Alan said they were shipping product to G1. So the million dollar question is how much is NN contract with G1. We sure need some good news to turn the slide around. JMHO Mike
