Verizon announced a broadband service deal with Microsoft on Thursday that combines Verizon's DSL network with the software giant's MSN portal.
"You can think of it as a strategic alliance, but it's actually a new service," said Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer on a conference call to discuss the agreement. The companies said they will create a new type of DSL experience: giving subscribers services and content with their high-speed Internet access. MSN's content, instant messenger service and Hotmail e-mail service will all be part of the deal. The companies said they would share revenues from the new service, but declined to give specific financial terms.
Verizon DSL was horrible for me, and I do not think this makes it any better. Read the rest here.

More attempts to compete with AOL 
The Verizon DSL service has very bad tech support, though ... they'd have to crank it up a notch if they expect to be better...
