Tom Roderick – Thomas Weisel
Hi, guys thanks and good afternoon. Peter you had briefly touched upon by $1 million subscribers you expect coming onto the ACP platform here on the next year, can you give a little bit more granularity, where are these share gains coming from, and how do they sort of impact the way you think about organic growth in the year 2009? Thanks.
Peter Kalan
Well, Tom, I am not a liberty to disclose which clients thus are for and where they are coming from, but they are coming from competitors' platforms. I would tell you that bulk of that the subscribers are driven by clients who are consolidating their business operations from competitors systems at least parts of their business of competitors systems and ours and as I mentioned in my comments, we think is a strong statement and testimony to our client view our solutions, but we feel very confident that by having more of our client subscribers on us that our business solutions will help them run new business more efficiently and then we will also be able to sell some of our ancillary additional products to drive them some more.
From the, what’s the organic growth rate any time that we add subscribers it’s added to us. The timing of how those subs come on is going to have an impact, because we have do migration efforts and bring those subs over and speaking for Randy, and he can chime in, since we haven’t given specific guidance for 2009 yet, we’re reticent to say anything more about how this if we change any of those kind of previous high level targets that Randy’s laid out. Randy you got anything to add there?
Randy Wiese
I think you said it very well Peter.
Peter Kalan
Well, I tried.
Tom Roderick – Thomas Weisel
One last question for me, just in terms of talking to your customers and thinking about the pace of some of their transformation projects in the way that they’re building their business; as we look at the Telco businesses and talking about and hearing them slowing down their CapEx, are you hearing the same thing from your cable customers and is this building into your plans for next year or do your customers use it as a chance to gain more share from the life of the Telcos and the wireline side?
