I doubt it will happen. What Bellsouth is offering is ADSL which means 
they have a CoLo within a set number of feet from your house. What you are 
getting from Speakeasy is IDSL. It is basically ISDN service which does 
not have the length restriction that SDSL and ADSL have due to the fact 
that it runs over digital phone line (simplistic definition). So they're 
different technologies and are incompatable. I would think that the 
Bellsouth would be less expensive eve with the phone service.
