Re: Potential

I don't think trivial is the right word. They would have to work out a true arrangement with Covad. The current arrangement of "reselling" something is just a marketing one. What your talking about would require more engineering. I don't think they can make that investment.

I don't see that the company itself has problems so much as their stock price has problems. I don't know why anyone would go with the triple play which costs $33 a month on sale while Vonage costs $15 not on sale. Comcast keeps trying to offer that to me each time I call in and I have to point out to them its nowhere near a savings for me...

Place a couple high speed backhaul links from diverse Covad POPs to the Vonage datacenter, a couple simple routing rules and you're good to go.

It's not rocket science. This is first level CCNA stuff.
