I love it.

I can't speak for other areas, but most everyone in my town sees FairPoint as the bad guy in this whole deal, and are dumping as many FairPoint services as they can. I've personally talked at least 6 or 7 former Verizon DSL subscribers into switching from FairPoint to a local ISP, as well as making the switch myself.

Why anyone would see Fairpoint as the bad guys is crazy to me. It is Verizon who spent little to nothing on the network in Maine, NH and VT for that past several years then bailed on everyone involved!! And you can talk everyone you want into leaving FP and going to one of the local ISP but unless they are wireless they still use FPs facilities and it is those facilities that the local ISP needs to be in good shape to give good service to their subscribers. So why doesn't everyone quite slamming FP who has a much better chance of improving facilities than Verizon ever would have done up here and give them a chance to do so! They just took over a network that has been neglected for years give them a chance!!
