My My defensive little pompous ass aren’t we. My comment is based on my personal experiences doing customer acceptance representing the Ampex corp. for british customers on professional audio and video equipment, and various brits in the military and higher education. biggest bunch of dick heads and whiners I’ve every worked with, of course that’s just my opinion, but I can honestly say I’ve never met a limey that I liked.
@pound puppy why the attitude? I simply pointing out that the US has it’s fair share of regulation too…and in response to how late we get things pointing out the constant cries on this site about the single US carrier when us backward Brits have been able to use 5 carriers for iPhone @ iPad for ages.
No need for the attitude…anyone who works for a multinational gets bad experiences I know I do…if you want to gripe about regulation there are many worse places!
