I hate things like this. Why would they want to cut out the
VAR/Reseller/Consultant?
I had to jump through hoops to be setup as a client of NetxUSA several
years ago so I could get wholesale pricing so I could make a buck or two
off hardware and a few more bucks off setting up that hardware. Now
those dollars will not come my way. I don't know if I can stomach the
way this is starting to go. This line really gets me, "With regional
distribution offices and in-house certified engineers, NETXUSA assists
business customers with the entire Digium-Polycom implementation." I
thought that was my job!
How come you didn't see this coming, everything in technology ends up
being a commodity. Your business plan and strategy is like putting
regional distribution and certified engineers in the .com bubble. Voip
is a bubble only if there are business plans like yours. Didn't you
learned anything in the Youtube business?
I certainly do not blame Polycom, but this is
a real slap in the face move by Digium.
Anyways... Let me digest this a little more. Posting in anger is stupid.

"The /*BuyNOW*/ feature, within AsteriskNOW's Digium-designed GUI,
greatly simplifies the phone purchasing process by immediately
connecting users to NETXUSA <http://www.netxusa.com/>, a recognized
leading distributor of Voice over Internet Protocol (*VoIP*) products
and services. With regional distribution offices and in-house certified
engineers, NETXUSA assists business customers with the entire
Digium-Polycom implementation."
