�The softswitch segment performed better than expected, and suggests that market conditions are improving," said Lilian Tau, Vice President and Principal Analyst for DAI�s NGN Research Program. "However, sustained improvement will depend on economic conditions and their effects on the carriers� upgrade cycle. Recent Dittberner survey data confirms telco budgets remain tight."
