AT&T, L3? 

Anyhow I fully agree with the sentiment that in eu/us markets most SP rock
ISIS. At one time when I was shopping for testing gear, one box I tested was
Anritsu, which is pretty nice box for its price range, but I couldn't use it
due to lack of ISIS emulation. Anritsu sales guy asked their engineers why they
didn't do ISIS, answer was because no one uses ISIS. But I guess their focus is
asia.
