"We are very pleased with HP not just from a technical side, but also in terms of sales support and its roadmap for the future. HP really has the curve on a 64-bit operating system with HP-UX 11.0. Although the HP 9000 N-Class servers have ample capacity to satisfy us for several years, we anticipate buying more HP servers as our business grows."

Ericsson
"Ericsson recognised some time ago that Hewlett-Packard had created many unique features in e-speak. These features not only enable the rapid development of both today's (2G) and third generation wireless (3G) communications applications but bring new benefits for both mobile network operators and their customers. Matching customer profiles and requirements with Field Engineer profiles, skill-level and availability is but one example. The Ericsson Mobile Positioning System and the Positioning application is an excellent example of an e-speak enabled application for use in the Mobile Internet. It combines e-speak with Ericsson's extensive applications knowledge gained through working closely with mobile network operators world-wide."
