With all the bullshit we have been hearing from the Mex regarding the lack
of transparency of the recent government tender, you'd think the little
fuckwit would keep his own house in order, right? Apparently not.......
"Telstra has handed its US mobile phone distributor Brightstar a
multi-million-dollar windfall by paying it as much as three times the
industry rate to provide handsets to its branded and third-party retailers
as part of a deal worth $1 billion a year.
Telstra is paying Brightstar, whose owner Marcelo Claure is a *business
partner of Telstra chief executive Sol Trujillo*, between $17 and $21 per
handset, the contract shows.
The going rate for handsets is about one-third of Brightstar's contracted
rate......
In September 2005 The Australian revealed that Telstra was in talks with
Brightstar for the first of two deals the US company would sign with Telstra
in 2005 and 2006.
The first, handed to Brightstar *with no tender*, was for an exclusive
arrangement to source at least 2 million handsets each year for Telstra. "

They wont have him back. Better to ship him off to jail instead.
That way his bonuses can be stripped away.
If that is true, surely it must be a crimminal offence. Time to act Police?

Thats arguable, particularly if his association
with that other yank was made clear to Telstra.
> Time to act Police?
The cops wont get involved unless he concealed his association
with that other yank from telstra and even then thats unlikely.

If Sol is a business partner of the Brightstar boss, i like to know
the particulars of that business arrangement. I believe Brightstar
handset have a the worst reputation for reliability of any in
Telstra's stable. It's quite probable Brightstar units are being
returned by customers more than any other supplier.

And the practical reality may be that he didnt have a lot of choice
when he wanted to use the cdma band for nextg handset wise initially.
Its FAR from clear that he did anything illegal as long as
the board etc was aware of his previous with brightstar.
