Where in the world is Broadweave?

The folks over at Broadweave have a count down going for when they officially take over the iProvo network. There it is, right on their homepage.13:28.33, 32, 31, 30 ... you get the picture. In fact, the iProvo takeover has completely, well, taken over Broadweave's Web site. With less than a day left (they're supposed to be signing the paperwork today) what kind of changes can current iProvo customers expect? Aside from some extremely nebulous (man, I love that word) comments about better phone/TV/Internet service, they have yet to release any information about the Big Switch. What happens to e-mail addresses? Keep the old ones for a month then switch over? Switch on Day 1? What about static IP addresses? (A kind of permanent Internet address used to better locate servers.) What about business accounts? Do customers have to renegotiate? When? We started asking ourselves these questions last week and started making calls. What we got in return was a whole lot of nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zero. *tumbleweeds* *crickets* Maybe (as I've heard from a third party) they're waiting to completely own the thing before making announcements, but I'm not sure I buy that. They've already announced buying the entire customers base, helped out customers who got the nasty end of the Mstar meltdown, and have new a pricing list for iProvo customers. So clearly they aren't nervous about the legalities of an "official" acquisition date. Broadweave, where are you? Leave a Comment { Last Page } { Page 5 of 67 } { Next Page } |
