Re: bye verizon
The nation's Bell companies are quietly lobbying the nation's top regulators at the Federal Communications Commission. Their goal is to slap new charges on Internet-based calls in order to protect their own system. If the FCC goes along, it will effectively crush the growing entrepreneurial drive by numerous Internet providers to provide consumers with this service.
The Bells' assault on Internet phone calls (technically known as voice over IP, or VOIP) sets a dangerous precedent for the Internet. The Bells' goal is to establish what would amount to a massive Internet tax by hitting Internet telephony providers with huge access charges for connecting to the local Bell networks
YOU KNOW THEY WILL TAX THE HELL OUT OF IT! AND PROBABLY HAVE TO HAVE THE CABLE COMPANIES OPEN UP THEIR NETWORKS TO OTHER PROVIDERS......... I CAN BUY SOME SATELITES AND RESELL THE PROGRAMS ON THEIR CABLE SYSTEM.....THIS IS STARTING TO POINT IN MY FAVOR NOW............
I THINK THIS VONAGE IS A GREAT IDEA FOR A SECOND LINE....I HAVE JUST HAD BAD EXPERIENCES WITH MY CABLE GOING OUT THAT THIS WOULD NOT WORK AS A PRIMARY THING

| Of course...another reason to hate the RBOCs and all ILECs. They don't want any competition...their primary goal is to screw over customers and gain TOTAL control over content.
