Mike:

Taking the numbers in your post from Gartner Group's projections, I calculated the yearly sequential growth in those areas, since that is perhaps more important in evaluating the value of stocks.

The fastest growing areas are residential broadband access (88% four year
growth average), followed by wireless (19% four year growth average). Only
these areas can really justify high multiples of stock prices. I doubt if this
is a surprise to many.

Note the Gartner Group's data does not make a complete picture: I think
services will be bundled, so you should add services such as cable TV,
interactive TV, internet access, VPN services, etc. But when you add these,
I still think residential access, particularly cable access, would be by far
the largest growth area.
