Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] How does Norvergence do it ?<br>
<br>
So a guy shows up at the the office, after making an<br>
appointment with the office manager / receptionist to talk<br>
'phone systems'.<br>
After her eyes glaze over, with him talking T1 and<br>
Frame-Relay I get to see him. He's from Norvergence. Well<br>
dressed. Tells me they can do a T1 for $79, with unlimited<br>
local & long distance for free. It also does 'internet'.<br>
'Just give me copies of your phone bill'. I ask some<br>
questions, like number porting, like provisioning of DID<br>
numbers, like CIR on the data etc. Now HIS eyes glaze over.<br>
That's technical talk ... He's just there to follow up on<br>
the appointment and 'qualify' the customer to see if we are<br>
worthy of their cheap service. After I looked at their<br>
website, I can hear 'quack quack'.<br>
Cheers,<br>
