<<<Analysts say a telephone company or cable TV firm that can offer high-speed Internet access as one facet of its services will bring thousands of customers' long-distance, wireless and local telephone business across, too. Most people now see the Internet as the information superhighway, and the fight is over the on-ramps, whether it be telephone technologies like integrated services digital network (ISDN) and asymmetric digital subscriber loop (ADSL) or cable modems using coaxial TV cable.>>> Bill -- Excellent article. And this is exactly why companies like GTE are scrambling to get ADSL out to the public. They want to be first no matter which line code they use. It's marketing and advertising. Once they get the ball rolling, they'll add, subtract, divide, do whatever the market dictates. IF Amati can get its power consumption down (and I believe they already have) and get the chips into production (which we've been told are still on schedule), we've got the battle won. DMT is clearly the more cost-effective answer for telcos in terms of utilizing their present copper lines --- to say nothing of it being the more cost-effective speed-wise for the user. Thanks for posting. Regards, Pat
