Re: let the pots exodus continue

Taken from Copps's remark...

"As much as we strive to put together the best item possible, no Order is perfect,
and this one is no exception. We have a few loose ends still to tie-up—other standards
surrounding porting processes and “non-simple” ports. In particular, as the Order stands
now, the shortened interval still applies only to simple ports. Some of the non-simple
ports look no different to consumers than simple ports, yet the shortened interval adopted
in this Order will not apply. All consumers should be able to benefit from the shortened
porting interval. We do, however, take these matters up in the Further Notice, and I look
forward to addressing them in the relatively near future."

I wonder who will be defining what a "non-simple" port is? If it is the losing provider, this order will have very dull teeth, with many possible delays.

At any rate, this seems like a good thing for consumers. If the carrier doesn't pull their weight, we can take our business elsewhere a lot easier. This is good for competition.

A step in the right direction on the part of the FCC.
