Separate groups -- one internal IT, one technology for production/network management. It creates its own challenges -- lack of integration when needed (single view of customer, cross selling/up-selling, etc.).
If all companies become "telco's" - Think banks, Web companies (Amazon), E trade, where bits are the deliverable or run processes of business units. How do they separate the operations and technology futures roles? Amazon separates CIO role and responsibility from the AWS responsiblity (CTO). On the other hand ADP's CIO had an expansive role across operations, R&D, and new services and offerings.
When things are blowing up there is no pattern. Our inability to find a pattern may be the best indication that the role itself is unstable in its current "standard set of responsibilities?"
