Take that Slim!

Showing that he doesn't control every form of telecommunicating in Mexico, Maxcom Telecomunicaciones listed for the first time last friday in the US with little to no fan fare. Seems like Mr. Slim in more concerned with fixed lines in the country that invented the chimichanga, rather than servingmedium and small sized businesses
But Slim and his Telmex need not worry over their monopoloy being spoiled. When you own over 90% of the telephone lines in the country, you can collect whatever you want when passing go. Seems like Cofetel (the Mexican version of the FCC) is applying a little pressure to Slim as well.
One point for the little guy. No points for Slim (not a little guy)
