Skibare has the goods on a potential incestuous relationship between Quest, Level 3, and Sprint/Nextel. Aren't Quest and Sprint/Nextel rival competitors? Looks like the carriers and major backbone providers have to get along much more than the 1990s if they want to survive the impact of wireless and VoIP technology. But with the major carriers doing deals with each other, AT&T now part of SBC, and other consolidation in the carrier arena, I wonder if won't have to break up the carriers in the near future (like we did Ma Bell) to prevent just 4-6 major carriers from dominating the U.S. telecom sector.
