Paul, re: ISDN being a dying or never-get popular business and Frame relay slowing down (assuming this to be actual) . From your next comment I assume that you believe ATM is where things are headed.

Ascend addresses this trend with the recently introduced GX550 smart core ATM Switch and adding multi-service capabilities including frame relay and IP to its CBX500 ATM switch. The GX550 is the first of its kind enabling service providers to offer sophisticated ATM services directly from the core (at OC-48/STM-16 speeds with SONET infrastructure capabilities). Similarly, the CBX500 ATM Switch enables service providers to respond quickly to market changes by making a broader range of services available on a single platform.

Ascend also introduced the Navis Family of network management products that enables service providers to track and bill for services over ATM networks.

Infonetics report confirms that ASND is gaining share (in ATM), currently reported to be 23%. So, things appear to be moving in the right direction.
