a laughable excuse
they have not been able to to upgrade customers' systems to a GSM or CDMA network yet because there is a lack of equipment
the real reason: they never tried to upgrade customers, and who would want to considering what they charge for these units. But to say there is a lack of gsm/cdma chipsets 🤣 is all i have to say. maybe a lack of R+D to put those non-analog chips into their units is to blame - but c'mon whose fault is this?

It's inconceivable that a company could be this ignorant of the progress of technology. I can't imagine it's very easy to just create a whole new range of devices, but it can't be very difficult either - they'll probably just have to commission some tech company out there to build them a new GSM or CDMA device, and cut their profits. They have no one to blame but them selves and their IT dept.
. . . and on a related note, if they don't get the deadline extended, than I can see lots of robberies going down in March 2008 😉
