I've been using Qwest for a year or two now, and I'll be looking into other options as well. Speakeasy is almost certainly going to be the one I go with. At this point, long-term stability is going to be a major factor in my decision. I have some friends who are employees at Speakeasy, and from what I hear from them, they seem to be making some smart operating decisions that will serve them in the long haul (diversifying away from Covad, etc.). Here in Seattle, there are a lot of people using Speakeasy, and I haven't met an unhappy customer yet. Qwest was borderline evil anyway, this MS thing just makes if official.
