ISP Information:
This is commonly an error in design or programming in a hardware device or piece of software. The effects of a bug may be as harmless as an extra graphic on the screen, or as harmful as a system crash or loss of data. The first computer "bug" was a real bug, a moth, in fact, that was stuck between relays back in an early computer in 1945. See also Feature

Bug - http://www.telecomweb.com/news/1082572258.htmThe FCC on Wednesday (April 21) was preparing to release itslong-awaited decision on AT&T's petition seeking a declaratoryruling on its phone-to-phone Voice over Inter Protocol (VoIP) service,sources tell TelecomWeb's sister publication, Telecom PolicyReport.

And although the fivecommissioners voted to deny AT&T's petition, at least two of them-- Michael Copps and Kevin Martin -- are said to have seriousreservations about the denial.Sources tell TPR that Copps and Martin were under tremendous pressureto vote with the majority, and that the order denying AT&T'spetition was crafted in such a way as to make opposition to it appearcontrary to the principles of universal service.Full story at:http://www.telecomweb.com/news/1082572258.htm
