I work with Covad, and a big part of it is is their lineshare ADSL Customer base, SDSL and IDSL through them are fine. They lose customers who have ADSL on lineshare, because if the phone line starts having problems, the ILEC's rarely fix it, since they aren't providing the DSL. Even if the customer has had it for a year through Covad, they've lost a customer.
So yeah, I guess that amounts to your customer base getting screwed by the LEC's.:/
I thought small claims limited you to $100? Hmm, maybe you could sue once you've downloaded just the header.
California's already lawsuit-happy. Now they have the fuel to scam money away from residents of the other 49 states! Woohoo!
SBC owed them hundreds of millions of dollars. why not get a cash infusion from SBC that was owed to them anyway?
I think the real money comes in being acquired by Earthlink, eventually. :)

Why postpone your funeral when youre ready to die?

If Covad really wants to make it, they need buy a vowel and change from a CLEC to ILEC.
