Hi,

I have been scanning this and other groups for information regards the
current grass roots issues about  the roll out of MNP in the UK (also
Hong Kong) as these are the only  places where it has been implemented
to date.

Here in Australia the government is in the process of mandating this in
the local and mobile markets. Does anybody have and sources of
information (internet or otherwise) which highlight what the current
issues are? Also I'm interested in hearing about the experiences both
from a customer point of view as well as the success or otherwise of the
Signalling Relay Scheme in the mobile market.

One specific question is , in the UK can you port any mobile number or
is there a specific number range that customers have to buy into ?

For Australian listeners the ACCC and ACA most recent information is
December 1998

Thanks for any help in advance
regards
David
