style='font-size:12.0pt'>My original intention, which I admit that I did not
communicate clearly, was to suggest that we maintain dialogue on this board
around best practices. Specifically on how to position value and charge
accordingly. And that we all present our respective organizations as high
value add service boutiques specializing in Open Source Telephony integration.
This will allow all of us to offer solutions that are competitive to Cisco,
Shoretel, Nortel etc. and keep our respective bottom lines healthy.
Anyone who has lived through a technology adoption cycle (or three of them)
knows what I am talking about. We will all be well served, as will our
clients, if we go into the mass adoption phase BEFORE commodization
happens. In a word - Community. Let's maintain a community of
opportunists who create a market opportunity. I believe we can do this
and all of us will prosper and our clients will be ecstatic. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

No need to get up in arms here. For obvious reasons price fixing is not<br>
the way to go here. This is my mistake for adding my two cents. At any <br>
rate different markets require different pricing structures so to all <br>
conform to one pricing structure does not make sense - this is what I<br>
meant originally.<br>

A literate person reading my first paragraph would see that my second <br>
paragraph is obvious sarcasm.<br>
<br>
Aren't you the fool who suggested price fixing in this thread? What else <br>
would you expect? There is an old saying that there is no honor among<br>
thieves. Please let me join your stupid game so I can break the rules <br>
and cut your throat.<br>
