Kidd, can you explain how bandwidth's porting process works, and how it works on activation day? What options do they give you? I like what I see from bandwidth, but one of the primpary markets that we do operate in is off-net for bandwidth. So I asusme they would have to go through a third party-off net provider.
This market however is covered by Level3, Verizon, Broadvox (now Onvoy/Vitelity), AT&T, and the other cell providers.
