[Plenty of Internet Bandwidth...thanks to WDM technology]

Pat,

Everyone keeps taking about 1.5mb vs 6mb because there is not
enough bandwidth or internet backbone. I've included several articles
which discuss WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing)and how it
mutiplies the backbone that is currently installed...every carrier
is doing this.

Let's see:
----------
need for more bandwidth - check (silly question)
faster desktop processors...(MMX - Intel) check
faster data networking switches.. check (Ipsilon..and many many more)
consumer modems ...BIG Check
Rboc equipment .... check, check, check

I think were ready. Soembody go tell the FCC that we are waiting for
RBOC's to deploy ADSL.

All dressed up and no place to go,
Bob
