QWest will sell itself to the highest bidder.

At some point in time, QWest realized that it cannot compete without a cellular phone network (AT&T and Verizon are losing hundreds of land-line customers a day to cellular only - which THEY don't mind), and without a good broadband strategy.

They will milk the DSL and land-line market as long as they can, and they you will see talks with AT&T or Verizon for a "merger".

Re: QWest will sell itself to the highest bidder.

So what they can sell off most of the network to someone else like Fairpoint and let everyone on here bitch some more on how much of a horrible company FP is?

If you don't like Qwest don't use them.

You have to have an option, and for the majority of Qwest's landline customer base, there *is* no real option, and they know it.

VZ isn't that stupid, and, despite AT&T being as dumb as a turnip, they ain't either. BellSouth was a far better company on its own.

I think Sprint should buy Qwest. Then, Sprint can have the distintion of destroying not only Nextel but a landline company as well. Not that Qwest needs much help. Qwest has some lousy cash flow. My stockbroker calls Qwest a moneypit. She calls them "Qwest for Failure."

Her names for some companies:

AT&T - The result of the Empire crossed with an idiot.
Microsoft - Boys with bad toys.
Vonage - Citron's new scam.
GM - General Mayhem.

Your stock broker sounds like an idiot...
