Trey,

<< The RBOCs are dead they just don't know it. >>

That is exactly what analysts have been saying about ATT 2 years ago. As soon as RBOCs are allowed LD ATT and MCI and Sprint will be dead, they said. We know now, that RBOCs did not get what they asked for, but in no so distant future they will. And then again the analysts will be screeming that LD cos are dead.

I think that the cable/adsl battle is a side issue for RBOCs. Their main concern right now is wireless voice. The prices keep going down, making the local wireless a formidable competitor. The second lines are being stolen by wireless, the number of local voice connectivity minutes are going down and the LD crossconection fees are disappearing. Instead of going after cable business RBOCs might be better off going after wireless.
