<p>Well, that sucks. Did I miss some VZ news that would have
affected this?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>With Frontier pushing this off however, I wonder which ROBC will
be the first to break and offer SIP interconnection. It has to
happen at some point, although at this rate, I'm not sure if
"sometime this decade" is too much to hope for.<br>

<br>
Maybe they finally realized they were giving all their
business away to <br>
Sinch and InfoBip and that it was going to start costing them
money if <br>
they didn't move away from SS7. After all who has more
switches to pay <br>
for than the ILECs and RBOCs?<br>
