    ...but if you were in the UK you wouldn't have this problem anyway as we've had the right to take our numbers to any network we want for quite some time. Oh, and we've got GSM too which is better. Just thought I'd mention it. Gotta get one over on you guys sometimes!

    how will that work? it will definitely save on the numbers needed, but won't all the companies have to have linked comps now?
