Specifically, they (I'm sure about Golan, almost sure about Hot) have their own network switching cores (Golan purchased 2 of them from Nokia Siemens Networks), and that (AFAIK) includes the SMSC and MMSC gateways... so they're a completely different service provider, even though they share RF antennas while they build their own. Both Golan and Hot have a unique MNC[1] code. Rami Levi is indeed different, because they use Pelephone's switches. Still, I don't see any good reason for Pelephone to provide them connectivity to ICQ... every service they don't have to give to the virtual operators by law, there's no reason for them to help their competition... -- Shimi [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code
