Will Wireless Portability Get Delayed Again?
While there are discussions everywhere about what local number portability will mean for the various carriers, some think that the date by which portability will be offered is going to be rolled back. Officially, it’s been set for November 24th – and some carriers have indicated they won’t be ready by then. Now, Sen. Ted Stevens is trying to push through legislation that will stop any FCC funding for LNP enforcement until the wireline-to-wireless portability issues are dealt with.
