Note: Oi reviewed, inside Anatel's system, the quantity of mobile accesses in December 2010 reducing the company's total and consequently the total of Brazilian accesses in 386 thousand. By this change, the total of Oi's net adds in Dec/10 would drop from 993 thousand mobile accesses to 607 thousand and the net adds registered in Jan/11 would increase from 280 thousand to 666 thousand accesses, We kept, in Teleco, the numbers originally reported by Oi about Dec/10.
