 Rumor has it...

EarthLink is either going to be gobbled up by another company or buy another company (they are looking at Covad) in Q1 2008.

Got this from an internal source.

Covad's a good choice. The home phone/ADSL2 service they offer in conjunction with Earthlink could serve as the coming residential Covad ADSL2 service.

Where is ELNK going to get qualified people to run the COVAD portion?
But then this is just rumor mill speculation. I sure don't relish the idea of ELNK being "gobbled up" and having to re-provision with yet another ISP that "stretches the truth"

Since when do you have to be qualified to know how to outsource tech support and most of your operation that the customer's interact with? Covad already out sources tech support and Customer Service. No problem there. Just now need the in house techs that are in the states. No problem keep the ones they already have.
