What competitor isn't happy to see this happen to some upstart that undercuts their best price by a large amount? Not that any one, or group, would actually do this deliberately.
I hope Voyager is able to recover and come back on line. Competition is always a good thing.

The perpetrator of this attack should be tracked down and pursued to prison.

Am I alone in wondering whether this incident is too convenient? On the face of it, competitors will be happy and Voyager mobile is losing business.

The USA and Canada have the highest rates in the world, (as far as I know and pay)

To finish my comment.

What would happen if Voyager wasn't actually ready to deliver. So instead, devised a scheme whereby they can appear 'legitimately' to be unable to start taking orders. They get good publicity (instead of negative)and their name is emblazoned around the world.

As a UK resident, I have no axe to grind - we wont be able to get Voyager mobile here.

I just pose a question - but then I am cynical and suspicious about (big) business.

I wouldn't get too excited about the service until I see a coverage map. Virgin Mobile (in the U.S.) piggy-backs off the Sprint Network as well, but only has a fraction of Sprints coverage area, but Virgin Mobile has very good prices too.
