Re: "Wait and see"

Honestly I would prefer to see Qwest focus on higher internet speeds and keeping the DirecTV partnership intact. They will never be able to put a product together as well built as DirecTV does currently, and with Sunday ticket and the boom in HD they should be able to swing a lot of customers their way in the next couple years if they can keep pace speed wise with cable companies.

A mix of FTTN and ADSL2+ is already out there. The FTTN can handle 50meg, and from what I've heard the ADSL2+ can handle about 25meg. I think they would be in good shape for a long period of time in their region if they focused the bandwidth to internet use and continued to work with DirecTV for their bundle. I don't think the cost would justify the means in their case to offer their own TV product.
