Qwest has largely exited rural areas in favor of populated areas; AT&T still has a lot of rural territory, and I don't see them selling much if any given they (both SBC and BellSouth) traditionally never have done that sort of thing.

What Qwest areas have been largely exited?
I think I'd agree that they are the most active BOC to sell of a few junky exchanges at a time, but they are mostly as they were at divestiture in term of coverage.
