 Spinoff ISP services//Transport only

These big carriers should simply sell transport services at the same rate to everyone. They should be forced to spinoff their ISP services so that it's the ISP's who compete with one another. I have 6 meg ADSL service that is carried over SBC's facilities, but the ISP is Sonic.net
I like Sonic because of the business class services they offer and the excellent customer service. SBC would in the end still make money since they would have guaranteed revenues as every ISP (including the one owned by SBC) would pay SBC the same amount for the physical piece of the DSL circuit. Competition in in the ISP market space is good for all consumers.

Yes, it's called "structural seperation" and I like it too. Who knows, if the Brand X Supreme Court case goes against the cablecos and they have to provide equal access, maybe it wil be included in The Communications Act of 2005, or 2006.
