<<Sector, Do you subscribe to the Gilder Technology Report? (If you don't you should. The best $295 I ever spent. The first stock I bought based on it returned about 15 years worth of subscriptions in about 10 days. To date this year the 7 stocks I've bought that are on his list of ascendant technology companies has yielded $92K on $204K invested.)>>

Now, that might even be worth a higher subscription price <g>. No I don't, but you just provided the reason to do so. I will look into it tomorrow.

<<What I'm wondering is if MRVC is heading in the right direction with its technology. The description in the press release about MRV's Dynamic DWDM makes it sound to me like it is a totally optical switch just as much as Chorum and Astarte's switches are:>>

Yes, I think so. Their technology here is very closely guarded. When I was at their annual meeting last October, I asked Dr. Rav-Noy how this technology worked, and he answered something like "we're not about to tell you THAT!" and Ron Stange said "that's what LU would like to know". Hints in both NAC documentation and other stuff I have come across point to the same type of capability.

<<If so, I wonder why Gilder doesn't mention MRVC.>>

He probably hasn't penetrated our stealth technology data screen. <g>

The Optical networking products referred to in that announcement last year are still not announced to my knowledge - I believe Noam said they were on schedule for the end of the year, but I have not had any further info on this for quite a while. When they are announced, they should make a visible splash - here's hoping.
