You're right that unbundling is a separate issue; I meant to refer to resale 
and interconnection, both of which were ordered by state and Federal 
commissions beginning around '92, but has never been a requirement for cable 
companies.

BTW: the local telco stopped selling "dry-copper" in Texas back in '84, long 
before anyone ever dreamed of ISPs using them.
