Sorry to interupt the longs vs shorts debate...

A couple of thoughts on NT:

- reveune shortfall this quarter shows optical biz not as strong, (90% g vs 150% last qtr). Need to watch if a treand is developping. How much biz has NT lost to Cerent platform in the SONET world ?

-NT last qtr said they'd do $12B in optical, now say only $10B is more accurate. $2B shortfall in 3 months ???

Despite the hype, NT has no mesh OXC (like SCMR), outdated SONET gear (losing biz to CSCO,RBAK) and is late in ULH (CORV). This could be a lot more serious for NT than previously anticipated.

I'm on the sidelines on NT for now, and for the record, still long CSCO...
