I infer that the substance beneath their message is this: "Hey, we're putting in a massive amount of capacity, and we're not going to populate the equipment racks until some time in 2003, 2004. When we finally do, it will be "all" state-of-the-art, and every other nationwide will by then be suffering from legacy ailments." I guess you're right about it not being posted here before, but I would have bet that I did. Anyway, here's another post from another board <thanks to Peter Quon> that was posted about 3 months ago. Apparently, this was Cornings largest LEAF contract at that time: Message 13982492 Largest Fiber Award in Corning History. Don't know if there's been previous mention of this but Aerie Networks announced plans to buy Corning's LEAF fiber for all of Aerie's planned 20,000 mile nationwide network. This will be a 432 fiber per mile install, or a total of 8.9 million fiber miles. Total value of contract over 4 years is $1 billion. Aerie's network will eventually connect 194 cities in US.
