Given the state of the partially deregulated phone system and people tending to depend on DECT phones, that is a non-dividing issue, in a lot of cases. Me, I keep a landline with a rotary phone.
It's hard to get DSL in some places in the country. Fiber? ha!
The current state of the affairs in rural / semi-rural USA is not the standard we should strive for. Focusing too hard on the limitations appearing as inherent to the casual observer will choke developement. We can look at that techno-echonomical situation and use it as a starting point, but nothing else. (were I more of an entreprenour I'd look at "no DSL available" as a golden opportunity to get lots of fibre customers. Not replacing copper but augmenting it also solves the distress problem. That or a 12V battery to power the Ethernet converter and the ATA Box.) -- Måns Nilsson primary/secondary/besserwisser/machina MN-1334-RIPE +46 705 989668 Well, I'm a classic ANAL RETENTIVE!!
