AT&T Wireless this week responded to the FCC's recent demand that the company explain number portability delays.

AT&T Will Soon Learn Their Lesson
Can AT&T mess their system up any more than they have in the past 2 years. I agree they are going to lose a lot more customers then they ever imagined.

Nightfire
AT&T Wireless chose nightfire because they used the company when porting numbers to their fixed wireless service, they actually chose nightfire before any of the other big 6 chose TSI. You can't really blame Nightfire or AT&T Wireless because TSI didn't setup their porting systems according to regulation.
