[ DMT vs CAP]

I noticed that there were no reported 'direct' comparisons.
We still don't have an apples-to-apples (perhaps MCI is
trying to keep for their own info?). Otherwise, it appears
to be as predicted--DMT has :

1) Longer line lengths (at least 18 K vs 15 K max for cap)
2) higher max speeds
3) Can work 5K even w/coils (I assume this is a DMT modem).

Diadvantages:

1) power consumtion
2) footprint.

presumably CG solves these.

Also interesting that RADSL CAP appears to work fine--rumor
apparently wrong about DOA.
