I hope this message finds the members and the moderator in the best of health and prosperous times.  I still manage to read all the posts here, albeit less frequently.

Just dropping a note to say hello.  I'm doing well in the advertising business.  The longer sales cycle is the most frustrating part of the adjustment.  I miss the churn 'em and burn 'em atmosphere of a Nextel sales call.

It seems of there's less N bashing taking place on the list, lately.  What gives?  Let's try to collectively kick it up a notch.  N's stock is booming, relatively speaking, so we can't rag on that.  C'mon Marcel, dig deep and give us some grit.

For example, according to Bulldog's sources, Timmy made a bunch of spot calls to reps around the country to take the temperature of the Ensemble conversion.  Feedback was resoundingly negative and Mr. Donohue is pissed.  He allegedly sent e-mails out to key people within Nextel rife with expletives to convey his dissatisfaction.  It would appear that throwing $100 million at a problem does not always render it fixed.

Is it true, Marcel, that you gave www.nextelsucks.org Timmy's DC#?  If so, might I suggest you post it at nextel-1 for our amusement as well.

Take care everyone.  Happy Thanksgiving. /GA
