At the end of the day it depends how much they want to do with these customers. It might be that the way they can make money is to keep having resellers and only have to support a handful of technically litterate companies then gobs of peoples who can't tell how to plug an ethernet cable. Look now at the Bell of this world which are stuggling to stay solvent. There are real costs in supporting a lot of customers and these can quickly drag down profitability on a low margin product. Point in case, Bell Canada had to cancel a privatization deal with Teachers because the new entity would have been insolvent. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
