FYI: From the Atlanta Journal,
BellSouth and Birch Telecom of the South said they signed a long-term agreement in which BellSouth will provide Birch with wholesale local phone service in nine Southeastern states.
Terms weren't disclosed.
Birch serves about 140,000 small and medium-sized businesses in more than 50 metropolitan markets in 12 states.
Earlier this week, BellSouth signed a similar agreement with Access Integrated Networks of Macon.
