80% of the carriers' revenue is generated by business users. 20%
remaining is generated by home users.
80% of the operational costs is incurred to support the provision
of telephony services for the residential users and the 20%
remaining to support business users.

The so-called mew world -to use the term Cisco's CEO coined-
will look like this:

WorldCom's deputy chairman: “our religious focus on the business
customer” has been to deliver the most lucrative market for the
smallest investment. The company has already wired up 52 city
centres in the United States; once it covers 85, it will have access
to three-quarters of America's business telecommunications
network.

Continuing in this course of action, companies -at least the larger
ones- will use extensions of their enterprise networks to provide
the telephone and data line for employees to access their intranets
from home. We can infer that will be left quite a few possibilities
for provision of pure telephony services under this assumption
above. How is going to be provided the service for users in need
of telephony-only service?

HOw telephony as public service will be financed then?
