Dick Notebart said it best when he said were just not sure people want TV from the telephone co. let directv do TV, thay do it better than qwest cause thats what they do,and let qwest do broadband and pots. pots is all but dead, it was predicted long ago that all service would evetually be digital. and were close now, pots (voip) will become just another add-in like call waiting. As for mergers, the only one that made sense for qwest was alltel wireless. Alltel serves mostly rural as does qwest. Alltel want more urban which qwest has. qwest needs its own wireless play to stop piggybacking on sprint. But Alltel went private equity, so that deal has passed. merge w/Sprint, thats as good as it gets. FWIW pete |
