Lucent does not have the time. Ascends (rather Cascade's) products are proven, installed and top of the line for a while now. Cisco, whose forte is data networking, could not top Cascade so I find such claims from Lucent (whose expertise has been voice switching) an attempt to try to keep the Ascend stock low so they dont have to shell out more money.
I wish I could show you recent analyst reports on Ascend following the their presentation after the Stratus merger. They could not be more bullish on ASND. Its the only premier pure play in the Carrier and ISP market with great data products which will start merging all voice capabilities. Lucent has Cisco breathing down its neck so it has to turn the tables soon.

Do you have access to a fax ? Maybe its time for a Bay area ASNDers meeting.
