Re: SunRocket out of money?
said by RockyBB  :when they come back with 2 for 1 offers to try to pry $199 from a few extra new customers, that would be a more telling sign of an impending problem. Based on that logic, VT should be ready to shut its doors. On the other hand, should SR permit existing customers to participate in upcoming 2-for-1 deals, that could be a telling sign. |

SR had at least a year head start on VT ... wouldn't be a shock if VT soon slowed its use of that promo as SR did last fall ... also, VT is a side business of another successful (we're told) enterprise, so there could be some subsidization going on ... SR is standalone with no other business units to help with the cash flow, or to offset or share expenses ... |

You mean SR isn't an aeronautics firm running a VoIP business on the side as a means of developing/bolstering communications for their eventual solar missions on Sun Rockets?  |

| Speaking of which, I don't think we spend nearly enough time on the whole Sunrocket/Hostrocket naming weirdness...
Perhaps more interesting to me is that this thread was apparently in jail for a while last night; it showed up linked but was not accessible.

I stand corrected (again). I had always thought the name was a realization of an old Pink Floyd song... "set the controls for the heart of the sun" |
