Windstream. AKA Alltell Wireline. Formed when Alltell spun off their wireline operations from their wireless (cellular).
These guys ain't stupid. They know that they cannot offer plain old telephone service anymore, and are very aggressive. Over 1 million high speed internet customers. 3.2 billion annual revenue 3 million access lines Ranked 4th in the top 500 companies according to Business week in 2009. And Brent Whittington is damned smart. He is their CEO. Jeff Gardner their president is no slouch, but Brent pulls it all together.
