I wouldn't be too hard on Mark/Space. They were given assurances by the
parties involved (Danger and carriers) that things would be ready by the
end of the month (February being the month in question). I'm guessing
they didn't get it in writing, because otherwise there'd be some legal
proceedings afoot. Anyhow Danger and/or the carriers guessed wrong on
when the backend would be ready, so Mark/Space is left in an
uncomfortable position. Until Danger and the carriers get their ducks in
a row, we get nothing and there is nothing Mark/Space can do about it.
