[Sumitomo]
Salim.
The EETimes article you refered to regarding Sumitomo
and Amati does not mention that Sumitomo intends
to sell Amati modems to NTT and consumers in Japan.
And I think the main reason Sumitomo signed the agreement
with Amati is because NTT wanted Amati modems.

In the Asian markets, providing video is far more
important than just internet access. I think the
telecoms in Asia can make a decent profit by
offering karaoke on demand by using ADSL.
And if the viewers are willing to pay to watch
some movies, NTT and others will put some
movies on the video servers. If you think
I am joking about karaoke on demand, you
are probably right.

With Sumitomo, NEC and NTT behind us, Amati has
more or less locked up the second largest market
for ADSL/VDSL modems. I was suprised that
the market didn't react positively to such a significant
press release.

Regards

Louie
