It's about time they did away with that old crappy, have a problem every time the farmer down the road uses his electric fence, copper. This is a good thing. We want to get rid of the copper.

You see, if you force everyone onto your own fiber, then you can force them to accept your terms, including your protocols. And you can then throttle the IP portion in such a way as to make no voice service, save your own, works. Don't think I'm right? Let's see in about 5 years or so.... calvoiper -- VoIP--the death knell of remaining voice monopolies!
