Toshiba the next victim?

[curlycord]

I cannot find anything in writing but a source told me that Toshiba is going as far as not even supporting anything phone related past 2017.
They stopped selling TV's and Laptops a couple years ago and looking at Toshiba as a whole (whom are huge) seem to be heading down a bad path and look like the rubble at the bottom of a steep landslide in stock terms.

Did any vendors get anything in writing?

Or maybe they will go the E-MetroTel route!

So I found out directly by calling the contact us number on the Toshiba website. The guy at first was reluctant to tell me but I mentioned a few installations and he broke down and told me about it. He was pretty upset!

Joe2938... Toshiba had a very small percentage of the market therefore between hosted and other systems it wont help enough to say it did.

Looks like Mitel has made an offer for Toshiba assets.

Strange move to say the least. Why purchase what they can get for free...
