  INFORMATION POLICY NOTE
  February 17, 1996 - ISDN pricing Workshop
  
            February 28, 1993 Workshop on ISDN Pricing Controveries
  
  
  WHAT:          A workshop on controversies over ISDN pricing. 
                 Why is residential ISDN priced so high?  What are
                 the public policy issues for state regulators of
                 ISDN tariffs?  What does it cost a local exchange
                 telephone company to provide residential ISDN?
                 What types of services can be offered over a
                 residential ISDN platform?  Will ISDN be an "open
                 platform" for a new generation of mass market
                 information services?  What are the alternatives?
