Mr. Peter Hendrick:
We are approaching pre-orders from 9,000 premises and we are about to connect 7,000 premises over the course of the next week to ten days. On average we are installing 150 premises per day and we are doing installation seven days per week. The demand is there, the orders are coming in and we are meeting that demand in the volume of connections on a daily basis. That rate of 150 will increase.
