DSL.net agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets and subscribers of mid-Atlantic-based TalkingNets, an integrated communications provider that offers softswitch-based voice and data services to businesses. TalkingNets offers its customers a dedicated T-1 line with unlimited local calling, caller ID, voice mail and long-distance services. TalkingNets currently has business customers in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C. DSL.net said the acquisition would enable it to layer a voice component onto its existing service offerings. Financial terms were not disclosed.
