Reuters is reporting:
Quote:
"Verizon is exploring the potential sale of its enterprise assets."

Verizon is my copper phone and ISDN provider. Verizon Enterprise handles ISDN for me and many other folks. Should they decide to go forward with this, I can only hope they would sell to a company who realizes that ISDN is still a big part of the entertainment and advertising world.

Capital (an investment) is only worth the income it produces. Any potential buyer will see that old copper wire and circuit boards don't eat anything yet produce income.

Frontier is my ISDN provider. They have not raised the rate or exhibited any signs of wanting to blow it up since the acquired the service from AT&T.

It's my understanding Frontier purchased same from Verizon here in Portland. Frontier has done a stellar job in maintaining my ISDN service and compared to the rest of the country, have given us stellar prices as well.
