Skelterhelter - re Conference call

[luberon]

As mentioned previously, I am out of the country and could not access the call, or replay.

Was there any explanation given by Espial as to why the release was available a scant 15 minutes before the start of the call? Hardly enough time for analysts and investors to examine the detailed financials in order to ask intelligent detailed questions, IMO.

Was there any discussion at all re the TeleColumbus implementation which we were led to believe was to happen in Q4?

Any discussion/feedback on the slings and arrows heaped on both Rogers and Espial by hapless customers who were forced to use the Navigatr interface (without recourse) as early as last summer?

TIA.

I listened to the call while also working on something so I was listening actively during parts of it and not at others.  I also missed the last part of the call mid way through the second round of analyst questions so I can't speak exhaustively regading he call.  I also did not have a chance to write notes during the call. Thats said, the release was out on the wire exactly 30

Thank you for taking the time to share what you were able to pick up. Good to hear that some had the release at least 30 minutes prior to the call; my source for news releases is Canada Stockwatch so the 15 minutes was them being slower to re-transmit. There are too few successful Canadian tech stories so let's hope that everything works out here!
