Pardon me for butting in here, but Mr Trujillo is not looking after shareholder value, he is looking after *his* value.
When my wife and I moved to Melbourne from Denver, Colorado, we laughed uproarously when we read how the politicians and media fawned over Sol Trujillo.
You see, we came from one of the US states "served" by US West, the telco led by Mr Trujillo at the time. It was know as "US Worst" and for good reason. That was before Qwest and Joe Nacchio gobbled them up.
Looks to me, like someone didn't do their homework when they brought him in, now they reap what they sowed.
To anonymous. Just to remind you that our politicians are arse lickers when it comes to anything from the US. They forget that it is the most corrupt and woirst "clayton" democrasy this World has ever seen. Thank God, if there is one, that like all past dynasties it is slowly dying from tghe corruption and bankruptcywithin.
Vic the enlightened one.

Dear Sol,
Go back to the good old US of A & back to whatever company you had a bigger position in. You're a "wally"! You have in your short term of employ managed to further demolish the name of a once great company. Single-handedly you have created a whinging pathos that can only be viewed as un-Australian, more commonly either British or American.
This great company's responsibility is to the Australian community first & if they didn't supply the infrastructure of telecommunications to the whole (read all of Australia, including the country areas) then the sale of Telstra 1 or Telstra2 could not go ahead, let alone Telstra 3.
Trujillo, you are a "Wally"!
Perhaps if more ‘Aussies’ got off their backsides and completed Bachelors and Masters degrees in business, with good marks, and have worked hard and smart, instead of wasting their time and brain cells at the Pub or sleeping around, we might have found someone in this country with enough knowledge and skill to run an outfit like Telstra, instead of always having to import the skills of those who have actually made the effort.
It is of course business educated foreigners like Sol and his three American imports (presumably with a clutch of MBAs) that have now presided over the worst results in Telstra's history.
What an offensive and boorish mentality. I don't have to list the many and much-lauded achievements that hard-working Aussies have accomplished over the years. Your attitude is so general that it dorders on the cretionous. Idiots like you merely propel myths and rumours because you're too damned lazy to get your own facts straight. Australians really don't have much time for stupid people...maybe that's what you're feeling, yeah? Go grab a coldie and mellow out,mate...I think it would do you a bit of good.

Sol's right, many of us sitting back watching this have been saying the same thing since day one.
The Government should not have sold the telco out if it wanted the Telco to follow Social Policy.
Too Bad Mr Howard and everyone else cuz you guys blew it.
Sol's responosibility is to the shareholder and he only doing what a shareholder would expect him to do.
So to the all the grumbling polies - Though luck get over it ya wingers
