It really depends on what you want to know, there are several different classifications of telephone companies, there is the RBOC (regional bell operating company), ILEC (incumbent local exchange company), CLEC (competitive local exchange companies) and independent phone companies. That really is just the hardline companies, with the popularity of wireless carriers, the number is just going up.

In 2000, I had to get a Y2K certification letter from each carrier in the entire state of Kansas, I know at that time, there were 62 phone companies in just Kansas, cant imagine what the total is for more populated states.
