Yep. Having worked for one of them, I am even more sure of my statement. -z- -- email: nettid1 at fastmail dot fm

Someone looking for the first might not want to take the risks of the second. -z- -- email: nettid1 at fastmail dot fm

The punters snatched the phones out of their hands as quickly as they could unwrap them.
