Re: waiting for the other shoe to fall...

SD6 - funny the cable analogy wasn't acknowleged. If cable doesn't have to do it, why do the telcos?

They should. But then again I am one that would declare all networks should be confiscated (since they were built with tax money or profits based on government protection regardless of time) and one fiber network that runs every where that any service provider can lease to gain access to any customer that wants any service.

The telcos don't have to share their recent deployments...

that's because the FCC was successfully lobbied by Verizon to exempt fiber from sharing reqts. And a little bit of "we won't build it if you don't exempt it" threats.

Why? Cable paid for their infrustructure with private funds. Telephone was not 100% private funds. People love to talk about how cable was able to 'negotiate' an exclusive deal (most people forget the word NEGOTIATE) however, phone was always granted a monopoly and then partially funded.
