Hello! I am hoping to contact the person that does the purchasing for your company's Internet Service. If you are that person, please read below. If you are not that person, and I have contacted you in error, please forward this message, or reply to me. Thank you. ______________________________________________________________________ My name is Paul Petersen. I work for U.S. Robotics. You are probably aware of U.S. Robotics and our new x2 products. We have an ISP program called x2 xTreme that is focused on helping ISPs deploy x2, get publicity for their x2 service, to attract new customers, and retain current customers. I am writing to get information to you about this program and how it can help your business. There are many advantages to going with x2 now. I will be calling very soon to find out if I can help you with any Sales, Technical, or Marketing aspects that you may need information on. There are some questions below that will help U.S. Robotics and me know a little bit more about your company if you decide to go with x2. I would greatly appreciate it if you could take some time to answer the below questions and return them. It could also save us time when I call. If there is a specific time and day for me to call that would be best for you, please let me know. Thank you for your time.
