Re: CLEC's

Thanks for the story Jim, it brings back some memory's from last year.

I and half a dozen Amati Investors attended the GTE Press Conference at Network + Interop in Las Vegas when the GTE announced buying BBN. May 6th or 7th ? Shortly there (2 months) after a few invested in QWST. Still moving up.

It was an interesting time, meeting some of the members of the Amati Thread who we had been posting with for over a year. Amati had a Live Booth CAM set up, and many on the thread got their first view of those of us who were there. We all had fun...... and I won $1,800. after standing at a Crap Table in the Luxor for 14 hours.

GTE Corp., headquartered in Stamford, Conn., is the most aggressive old-line phone company. Last year, it bought BBN Corp., a company that helped create the Internet and has extensive Net assets, and it acquired the rights to one-quarter of the capacity of the high-tech network Qwest is building. It's conducting trials with voice and fax over the same network that now carries its data. The company thinks it's inevitable that all the traffic eventually will flow over a converged network. ''We're not upgrading--we're putting in brand-new technology from the get-go,'' says George H. Conrades, executive vice-president at GTE.
