But it's possible for the WISP to buy "wholesale" from the telco side, thus robbing Peter to pay Paul... right?

Who is the telco that transports the Level3 to your NOC on the fiber?

The WISP is owned by myself and the founder of the telco 50/50.  We both 
tossed about $150K in to get this thing started.  For the most part, 
separate employees, buildings, offices etc.  Not a lot is shared.

We get most of our BW directly from Level 3.  GigE.  We lease BW on a fiber 
to get to our NOC.

So, yeah I do have thousands.  And I compete with Qwest and Comcast 
running
full page ads in the paper mentioning us BY NAME.
      
Yuk.  Aren't you a small telco yourself though?

Another question.  Where and how do you get your bandwidth being a
small telco?  Any discounts being a telco?
