so what? if you had even a fraction of the lines the gvt does, say 15,000 with sprint, i bet they would let you add and drop lines as your needs changed without etf too. |

The bigger the contract, the more likely will the telco be to make favorable conditions part of the deal. Of course this is std business practice for all contracts. The biggest businesses also get similar deals.

Exactly and any large org could have the same arrangement with Sprint when you deal in that type of volume. |

Only 15,000? Try closer to 150,000 and that would be just in the Washington DC metro area. |
