Empty vessels make most noise

This article in EmiratesToday got my attention. UAE is ready to claim the top position in the ICT Index this year. Last year Bahrain topped the charts.

In the 2004 ICT User Index, Bahrain secured the number one slot. "With competition between Batelco and MTC Vodaphone, customers increased and Bahrain stole the show," Malapitan said, but she added that the entry of the new telecom operator in the UAE may tilt the scales in its favour for 2005.

Reality check: It is midway through November of the year 2005. There are no signs of a new telecom operator. Or am I living in the stone ages?
