As foretold by that scribe in dslprime.com, VZ is rushing to take
advantage of the new NYS PSC unregulating ...

Excerpted from an advert in the NY Times (Fri 26-May, p. D5)

Dial tone monthly access rate:
residential current: $ 8.61, new: $ 9.85
business: $18.24 new: $19.79

(Plus, of course, all the various fees and surcharges and taxes
and kickbacks.)

Oh, business local per minute of additional use: $ 0.013 new: $ 0.016

(that means an increase from 1.3 cents/minute to 1.6 cents)

And ... "Certain isdn-basic service monthly rates" (no amount listed).

Plenty of other increases as well.

Click to the NY map, then "pending projects".

(hmm ... anyone up to looking through all the other states?)

Knowledge may be power, but communications is the key
