[Re: Interesting Sentence] Hi Bill - Yes, it sure is, and unfortunately, that's all "Case Ventura" wrote about it. I'll guess we'll have to wait 'till tomorrow...if we can make it through today's sure-to-be-interesting day on The Street. Steve

Hi bill, I would guess the sentence refers to their multi-megabit service which they filed tarrifs on last month. there are 3 service bands: 192 kb/s for $50/month 384 kb/s for $100/month 768 kb/s for $150/month Hardware is HDSL-based from PairGain. At these rates, it is clearly a loss-leader-my guess is they plan to make it up by selling the other side of the service to the ISPs at healthy margins. It will also drive the final stake into the ISDN heart. They also issued an RFP several weeks ago to provide an upgrade path from the above to ADSL.
