Telecom In The USA

Converge Digest has an excellent recap on this week’s Senate hearings on reforming telecommunications in the USA.

What is great to hear and read is the number of officials saying….hands off. It appears that the telcos are still wanting regulation, laregely so they can play catch up on one hand, but on the other, they know they have the cash to acquire, and don’t want to stifle themselves.

The cable operators seem to be the ones with the most to gain, while upstarts are where investment money, with a fast return, will be made.
