| Re: what a shocking surprise! First off, fowl wasn't a typo. (SBC too chicken to compete on a level field) Little play on words, not that it matters.
But no, I still don't see the problem. Using your example, I still say why does company A have any obligation what so ever to help company B steal their customers? They provide an ambulance service that works, and that is the end of their obligation to the consumer.
I'm not saying I agree with the way 911 was paid for, nor in who runs it. But the fact remains...SBC in this case is in control, and I see no reason for them to cut Vonage any breaks. If the FCC wants to step in and do something that is great. That is what they are for. But if I were a share holder in SBC, I'd be pissed at any moves to help the competition, and resolving the 911 issue for VoIP providers would be exactly that.
All that said, after multiple posts defending them...I'd like to point out that I hate SBC. I am a Vonage and CallVantage customer.
