Re: GTE and Genuity "With this acquisition we continue to build the critical set of assets necessary to advance our position as a trusted provider of the enabling infrastructure for Internet commerce." Looks like they intend to hit the ground running. Am I off base here or are they talking information/data management services? If so, No complaints here. The more they can augment their "basic" ADSL service with add-ons; the cheaper it gets for the end user; the more AMTX/WSTL modems get sold! This strategy seems to have worked just fine for Netscape. Heck, perhaps they should just charge the normal line rate for ADSL...think of all the instant customers they could sell their advanced information services to!!!! Thanks "Meg" You may have just freed Schmedley from "IT" Schmedley
