Hi Frank,

I had a chance to speak with some folks at GBLX to determine if I am in the ball park where bandwidth rates are concerned. They mentioned that they were quoting rates in 155Mbps chunks. As you may recall my survey consisted of increments of that level and much higher. In other words, my numbers should be reasonable, if not a bit low.

However, you did bring out a very important point, in that, by my statement of capacity in DSO circuits, I may have lead folks to believe that the revenues were directly correlated (not to mention “ignoring” a discount for large purchases or leases). Of course, this is not the case. DSO circuits were merely utilized as a “base factor” from which to standardize capacity and rates. In hindsight this was a cosmetic mistake, even thought several other analysts are doing the same. When I perform my survey next year, I'll make sure to do so in relevant increments and detail my methodology so to avoid any confusion.

Thanks for the input.
