Hi Mark,

It’s my understanding that the VSP9000 will enter beta in November 2009 with limited release in February 2010 and then GA by June 2010. I know Nortel already has several contracts for the VSP9000. We still need to see what Avaya will do once the sale is closed in December.

Thanks for the comment!

In reply to DaveTheRave.

Hi Dave,

I know that Nortel is still aggressively selling the CS1000 and CS2100 and with the blessing of Avaya. So that in and of itself would suggest that Avaya is going to provide support for that platform in the immediate future. What we’re all waiting for is a definition for “immediate future” and what it’s going to cost us to perhaps replace perfectly good solutions.

Thanks for the comment!

So the VSP 9000 lives to fight another day??

As a customer I am not sure this really means anything at the moment. The commitment on the data side is heartening but the lack of any real information or even a mention of core things like CS1000 and Contact Centre is worrying.

We all await with baited breath!
