Verizon DSL not real naked...yet Om Malik from gigaom got a hold of a Verizon PR erson who clarified that the "naked" DSL offering was only for exisitng broadband customers.

In 13 states if you are an existing customer of ours - you can port your voice number to non Verizon local voice provider, and do not have to drop the DSL,” she said. “That’s really what its all about. Its limited and first step. we should be rolling out soon enough. If customers don’t want a phone number but want to keep DSL, why wouldn’t we do that.”

. But with the infrastructure uprgades they are going through, expect Verzion DSL to be available in an area near you...somewhat soon.  ¶ 9:39 PM
