hi fred, fiber has advantages with respect to capacity...using dwdm, co's like lucent can split the lambda to 100 channels...but co's like avnx say they can split it to 1000 channels....each channel can carry 10Gbps but soon this will increase to 40...wireless using radio frequencies can do 640Mbps...wireless optics can do 1 Gbps...but the beauty of wireless optics is that it can solve last mile prob's at 1/10th the cost as underground fiber...co's like optical access(just filed S1 recently), terabeam and airfiber battling in this sector...with respect to glw, i do not believe they have wireless optical products...lucent has big stake in terabeam, nortel airfiber...perhaps glw should take a look at optical access, a wholly owned subsidiary of mrvc? mact
