The main problem in SA is - as Colin pointed out - the first tier  
primary networks (ie IS/Telkom/Verizon/etc) do not really care about  
this yet. I know because I've been asking our account manager - and  
others - for v6 for more than 4 years.  Without success.

I am not convinced that more marketing, training encouragement is  
going to work as well as personalization.

Does anyone still believe is face to face? Will it help if Adiel had a  
private meeting with the Executive Directors / CEOs at Verizon/Telkom/ 
IS?

regards

Alan
