said by lazarus_ : They are leasing equipment at really high prices to make a profit. The company I work for does the same thing for equipment rentals too..(not as outrageously priced though)
There's no problem at all with leasing equipment in a general sense -- but it's pretty much unheard of for a provider of business telecom services to lease customers, in a separate transaction underwritten by an equipment leasing firm, equipment that's necessary to provide said services; legitimate providers bundle the necessary equipment in their rates. (This is very, very different than a company choosing on its own or on the advice of a consultant to lease a PBX, routers, etc., since PBXs, routers, and so on aren't tied to a single provider of telecom services like the MATRIX box was, before Adtran started working on solutions to help out stranded Norv customers anyway.)
