lml--

A couple of clarifications-

1. I agree, the Earthlink DSL offering is ADSL, either RFC1483 or ATM-25 (ATMF) or both, depending on whether the home user has a
ATM NIC or not.

2. PacBells direct offering is ADSL, both of the above.

3. There are CLECs in PacBells copper plant. Rythms is one, and depending on *where* the customer is, the DSL offering could be
either IDSL or ADSL in some flavor.

PacBell is/was a little slow on the draw- The CLECs beat em and now they struggle to dominate. PacBell ran out of 5ESS ports and had to
do something.

BellSouth was about 3-4 months ahead of PacBell in getting into ADSL.

The real question is-- What about HDSL-2, the faster standardized
version ?? What will the ILECS do about that ??
