:I'm a fellow Carroll County resident. My residential ISDN BRI costs $39.06 month total. I've had the line for over 10 years and never had to "renew". I got the line before dsl or even cable was available in my area. Now I use it only for the voice channels. I don't use any data. It's my only line in the house (no pots). I kept it only because it gave me two voice channels (and telephone numbers) and was cheap compared to buying (2) POTS lines.
I had a technician out to the house last week for a repair issue, and he knows of only a few people left in the county on ISDN. He said in this part of the county it's just me and the ATM machine in the k-mart. Funny that I found another ISDN BRI user in the county here.
Sadly, I'm getting ready to cancel the line and switch back to POTS so I can bundle Verizon's triple-play. Verizon says that once I cancel, BRI ISDN is gone forever. They will not do any new orders in Maryland.
So BRI ISDN is grandfathered and nobody can order it ever again in MD?
