I have a thought that perhaps the recent Broadcom purchase will bring the bandwidth issue to light more than it has in the past. Yahoo stated that they were not interested in the actual hardware in data transfer, that would be left to others ( I would guess Qwest is one of those experts.) However, the best technology for video is limited by how much can be squeezed through a pipe. Perhaps this issue will be realized and the future of Qwest and others be realized.

Just a thought.

It appears that Phoenix Network (PHX) shareholders finally received the full $0.11/share cash component of the buyout (http://www.qwest.com/press/1698b.html) that's been in escrow for the last 18 months. I left a msg with QWST Investor Relations to confirm.

I assume this is taxable as capital gains, right?
