LVLT and MFNX-- How does that fit with XCOM ?

Interesting-- XCOM has POPs in the Northeast corridor and some
infrastructure--MFNX has dark fiber there. Does that fit??
I understand the POPs from XCOM and their customers for LVLT. Would
it not be cheaper for LVLT to "grow their own" ??

Why MFNX? Aren't their routes the same (or very similar) as RCNC? MFNX has some access to Chicago that is not duplicative but most of their Northeast routes seem very similar to RCNC. If that is so, what would the advantage be to picking up same routes? Is RCN going to be used just for switched services and not IP?

Isn't the MFNX head an ex MFS guy?

Sorry for all the questions - thanks for any help. Ken.
