As of this moment (Sunday 24 Jan 2010) Telecom's XT network has been down for me for over 24 hours. Whenever people in my household try to use it we get a "Network Busy" error. I dion't know how far the outage extends. As I haven't heard anything about it the outage could be quite localised.
Sometime ago I wrote rather disparagingly about Telecom's XT network. Recently while travelling I have found it useful as the data side of it is far faster than the CDMA network. My phone (a Nokia E75) comes with inbuilt GPS. It has its own GPS application but I installed Google Maps and use that instead.
I moved on to Telecom's new XT network earlier this week and I am wondering if this is a good move. I have noticed that sometimes my phone rings when calls are incoming and sometimes it doesn't. Just a few minutes ago I received a call. The phone didn't ring - I only happened to glance down at it and see that there was a call. When I answered it, the quality was appalling. I had to step outside before I could hear the person on the other end properly. They kept fading in and out.
As I said two posts back we use the Community Edition of SugarCRM as our Customer Relationship Management system. SugarCRM is very good and it has a good community behind it. There have been a lot of modules written that extend SugarCRM in various ways, many of which interact with other online systems.
