Of course, that may be pie-in-the-sky since I have read that the telco's obligation to provide circuits to independent isps will end next year.

Thanks for your comments, we appreciate you taking the time to write. I'll chat with our team about your particular loop length if you'll IM or email me (dane@sonic.net) your Sonic.net username.

Regarding AT&T's obligation to offer ADSL circuits to ISPs, it appears that we'll be able to continue to load new circuits through mid 2010. After that point, they could bar new circuits, though in-service customers are not going to be affected.

Meanwhile, we've formed a CLEC and are working to deploy our own DSLAMs. The availability of copper itself will extend into the foreseeable future.
