SBC profits down 40%

This guy is the reason SBC profits are down 40%, despite increasing revenue 21%. Another couple years of this nonsense and Verizon will have the market in the bag without even trying.

Re: And it ends where?

Dude what are you talking about?

Go read the Article again.

Because you missed the item that ed said.

I'll rephrase so you can understand " All your base belong to us".

Get it ? good! Because everyone else does.

I think (maybe), what he is saying is that if these "websites" decide they want to be ISPs (aka Earthlink) using wireless technology...they should have to pay to use the existing network, and if not, they will not be allowed to use SBC's pipe...but to me that should already be a given thanks to our nicely "paid for" FCC...I dunno, but he sure didn't come across very well with that statement even IN the context of the artice. He needs to smoke some more off that pipe and mellow out
That is my guess as well.
I also agree, the way this guy gives interview, he is inviting trouble.
