Note to providers: That might have worked a couple of years ago but when we hear that today, we know it is false. Please be honest in your responses to that question. If you aren't going to deploy it for another year or two, just say so. The notion that we are the very first ones to ever ask for it from a global provider in a major country is just lame.
I would also recommend that the sales organizations of those providers be provided with some level of training and/or coordination with their SEs and technical groups to understand what people are talking about when someone asks about that "eye-pee-vee-six" thing. Another common complaint has been getting different (often contradictory) responses from different salescritters. jms
