SUBJECT: Addition of New Items to Existing Products, deletions of some products and price changes
TO ALL STATE AGENCIES AND OTHERS AUTHORIZED TO USE STATE CONTRACTS:
Expedite Videoconferencing Services, Inc. has requested and the State has approved the addition of new items to existing products. These new products offer faster, more reliable service than previous product offerings. As a result of these efforts, Polycom will drop some older products and launch new ones. Typical of this is the introduction of the VSX 5000, the VSX 7000s and the VSX 7000e and the deletion of the VSX 7400 IP and the VSX 7000. This will result in adding new product codes and deleting old ones.
Even though some of the older products are being replaced, Polycom and Expedite will still provide maintenance on the older systems so that the State of New York can protect the investments it has made.
