Interesting map, as I'm unfamiliar with who provides where.

If in Tallahassee, Embarq is your provider. | |

Had them here in Tallahassee and in Orlando. Parents in Sopchoppy have it. I don't know where the Sprint and Bellsouth lines begin and end but it seems to me Sprint serves large sections of Florida...but I don't know that for sure.
Either way, a very interesting map.

Duluth, GA | Embarq is not, nor ever has been, a RBOC. You kind of have to be from the Bell System to qualify as a RBOC.

| Re: Too much.. said by rachelsfx :ieolus - "support the clecs" Is there any left? LOL! Well, seeing as you don't even know what an RBOC is, it is no surprise that you don't know if there are any CLECs left.
If you looked in any phone book though, you would know that there are CLECs still around. Mostly they cater to small businesses though, not too much to residences.

Even Fios may not save them in the long run. Hey, umm, you just wiped verizon off the west coast, the south, and everywhere else except new england. Do you own qwest stock too?

The map came from here. » en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_B···_company If you think it has major errors, feel free to post a modified map. Well you know but Wikipedia is not exactly a "gospel". It's a volunteer effort and thus will have certain mistakes. The map does not take into account Verizon's ex-GTE properties in the South and West Coast. | |

| Re: Too much.. said by Xela19115 :The map does not take into account Verizon's ex-GTE properties in the South and West Coast. Verizon is a unique animal. They are made up of both Bell and Non-Bell assets. They had RBOC properties in the northeast and independent GTE properties scattered throughout the country.
In some states (like Pennsylvania) they had both Bell (Bell Atlantic) and independent (GTE) lines. Now they are all doing business under the Verizon name.

Ellensburg, WA | Only problem with that map is, it's not entirely accurate. Verizon provides service in states like WA, and OR, as does Qwest. | |
