Verizon sent me a letter the other day stating that they are selling their =
landline business to Frontier Communications. It was a very terse letter an=
d as a customer I don't know if it affects me. While stating they aren't ex=
iting the Wireless business, I want to know which parts are being sold off.=
 Just the copper lines, POTS, DSL, FIOS (TV, Internet, phone)? Some clarity=
 would be great.  I am a FIOS only customer. Can anyone recall if GTE was b=
locked from doing the same thing a few decades ago?
