Bells Win a Battle, Not Necessarily the War
by noteworthy at 9:43 am EDT, Jul 23, 2004

AT&T's capitulation is not necessarily the Bells' victory. The future poses its own uncertainties for the Bell companies.

"The Bells should enjoy it while it lasts."

The Bells are benefiting from the now largely irrelevant distinction between local and long-distance calls, and the emergence of service "bundles," in which consumers pay a single monthly price for local, long-distance and even Internet service.

The publisher of Consumer Reports said AT&T's decision was "an enormous big deal."

Fail fast! (One can hope ...)
