| QWest will sell itself to the highest bidder.
At some point in time, QWest realized that it cannot compete without a cellular phone network (AT&T and Verizon are losing hundreds of land-line customers a day to cellular only - which THEY don't mind), and without a good broadband strategy.
They will milk the DSL and land-line market as long as they can, and they you will see talks with AT&T or Verizon for a "merger". -- "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both" - Benjamin Franklin, Founding Father. |

If you don't like Qwest don't use them. |

| reply to maartena VZ isn't that stupid, and, despite AT&T being as dumb as a turnip, they ain't either. BellSouth was a far better company on its own.
I think Sprint should buy Qwest. Then, Sprint can have the distintion of destroying not only Nextel but a landline company as well. Not that Qwest needs much help. Qwest has some lousy cash flow. My stockbroker calls Qwest a moneypit. She calls them "Qwest for Failure."

If you don't like Qwest don't use them. You have to have an option, and for the majority of Qwest's landline customer base, there *is* no real option, and they know it. |
