"As the accelerating shift to IP-based services continues to transform the broadband ecosystem, providers and innovators have significant opportunities to deliver on the virtually limitless potential of the Internet."
As PSTN (public-switched telephone network) the old dial tone that came in on copper lines and the phone company charged you an arm and your next kin to pay your bills. These wire lines are going away as VoIP is the new player on the IP transition. I will still have a job, even if the PSTN is not utilized as much. I really do not see them ever turning off the switch to the old technolgies, since allot of SMB's still use this service for small mom and pop shops, but as the prices go down on VoIP, it will decrease at an alarming rate, but never will go away permantly - JMOO, as an old phone guy and new VoIP guy
