For *now*, ISPs that use VZ DSLAMs can buy "wholesale" (tariffed, not cost-based) access to them, usually at the price that is 1$ below their "retail" price. This is mandated by "Computer II/III" rulings, "comparably efficient interconnection". However, bells are trying to get forbearance from even having to do that. SBC's petition for forbearance was denied, however, Verizon's one is still pending.
Enjoy ability to buy loops while you still can - we have the best FCC money can buy. -- Alex Pilosov | DSL, Colocation, Hosting Services President | alex@pilosoft.com 877-PILOSOFT x601 Pilosoft, Inc. | http://www.pilosoft.com
