Hi Joel,

"There is a fairly significant "churn rate" between waiting for installs and installed lines"

That is exactly what I'm afraid of.

As I'm also sure there will be a significant churn rate of people waiting to go wireless that never do. We hear way too many complaints from people using resold lines.

So not only will they be losing customers they'll probably never get back, they'll also be getting bad word of mouth. You probably only have to lose a couple customers in a building to give you a bad rep.

Milenium will be a great plan if they can sign people and put them directly on-net. This plan, as much as anything, is probably responsible for the recent strength.
