They actually sent an installer with the direction. The overall experience went well but the service wasn’t that good. When the phone call comes in it also gets sent to an independent operator who types in the information that they hear. So when she is conversing on the telephone there is actually a technician who types it out as she is hearing impaired. The issue actually is the accuracy of what’s been said to her and also speed in which it’s been written that’s what I was evaluating. The services are free. There was a promotion so there was no charge for the phone. The way the company makes the money is whenever anybody has a telephone they have to pay several charges and everybody is taxed so much for handicapped access. So these calls are paid for buyer. Whenever a phone call is made they get a fee for the phone call. They actually make money from the answerer. It’s relatively a new service that is going international. There are competitors to that. We had the competitors with their product which was Hamilton Captel and this is competing with different handset and service.
