Minnesota ISP, Onvoy, was recently purchased by Zayo. (You can read more in the Minneapolis/St Paul BizJournal.)
I worked at MRNet (Minnesota Regional Network), which was purchased by MEANS, who in turn became Onvoy. I was gone before the name change so I don’t feel as if I ever worked at Onvoy, but I do know some folks over there.
Zayo looks like a small organization that has been buying up broadband providers all summer. According to their brief web site, “Zayo is committed to providing large amounts of bandwidth at reasonable costs in geographies where it owns fiber networks. Zayo collaborates with its customers to develop bandwidth solutions that meet their specific requirements.”
It should be interesting to watch and see what happens.

Jamie,
Thanks! In my jetlagged state I completely forgot about DoCoMo!
It will be interesting to see what happens there – the one advantage of not being a leader is that the US should be learning from those who are.
they are a very large player .And as is seen threwout the world the large players are moving to supply wireless.Every technology has its place and i wont declare one better than the other but people do need open there eyes and realize that the world is moving to a mobile state .Also did u get your service set up and is it a wired service or are you using clearwire
