What part will VoIP play over your network, e.g.
- how much of you back-end / interconnects is VoIP
- will 3G data be VoIP friendly
- do you have plans for VoIP "land-line" option

What plans do you have for MVO's (think that's what it's call) i.e. wholesaling access to your network for other carriers to run their own products.

Probably already asked but:
* when are they launching contract/on account plans?
* what will the data bundles be like?
* are they going to continue rolling out EDGE (I hope so) or once they upgrade to 3G, stop rolling out EDGE?

When will 2dm support Porting via a CSR instead of web only (considering the web has been down for the last 5 days)

Question:

Will 2dm eventually support Video Calls? and if so, what sort of cents/minute are you looking at charging?

I'm on to my second video capable phone now and I've barely used the feature because of the amount Vodafone charges for the calls. It's more of a gimmick to show friends rather that a communication option.

Hmmm, unboxing videos *drool*

Indeed. :-)

Let's have a crack at them. :)

Any plans to introduce per second charging like XT for even better value?

Any plans for visual voicemail support on iPhone?

Any plans for cheap 2degrees to 2degrees txting like Voda TXT2000?

And just reiterate, when will you be introducing a bulk data plan, it's the main reason I don't use 2degrees.

Two questions from me:

What is their policy on MTR passthrough? Will they commit to 100% passthrough at retail of all reductions that may occur in MTRs for both voice and SMS?

What is their opinion of differing MTR rates for mobile operators depending on their time in the marketplace? In the EU it's common to have significantly higher rates for new operators such as 3 and Meteor. 2degrees are very vocal about MTR rates being lowered, do they also believe that their rate should be lowered or do they believe lower MTR's should only apply to other operators here in New Zealand?

The 2 degrees sim arrived in the post today yay.

but its a bit of a let down that as they use the vodafone network theres no strong enough coverage to get signal.
so back to telecom xt it is.

A question for 2 degrees:
With the 2 degrees network, would they help leverage vodafone to improve their coverage in current poor coverage areas?
