Rate fight masks larger phone issue
by noteworthy at 12:05 am EDT, Jun 17, 2004

Consumers are rapidly switching to wireless phones, the Internet, and cable systems for communication.

New rules could [will!] accelerate the technological shift.

"This gives the local telcos the opportunity to strangle themselves in their own copper networks."

For eight years the Bells and their rivals have battled over control of the old circuit-switched network, and even though the Bells appear to have won that war, it is becoming irrelevant.

It's not especially creative, but it is destructive, and that's what we like to see.
