The last report I saw was fewer than 22,000 customers affected, and I haven't seen any FCC outage report show up on the FCC web site about the PacBell problems. Wells Fargo said on average 5% of its ATM machines are out of service, and they didn't see anything out of the ordinary yesterday. 9-1-1 automatic location identification (ALI) service was also affected, although the calls themselves connected without problems.
