[comp.dcom.telecom] Local Competition Approved in CA

news@ucsd.edu> (05/14/91)

Here's an interesting one from this Friday's {LA Times} ... seems
that the way has been cleared in SoCal for competition to Pac*Bell and
GTE.  These must let other, smaller, companies make use of their
switches, etc. to compete with them.  I don't know what the long-term
effects would be, but at least a short-term drop in rates seems
possible if any company takes the bait.

The article didn't say much, if anyone else has any info I'd be
interested.
