The following paragraph sounds interesting:

"..........and Benhamou said a new, third solution, so-called optical ethernet, could prove to be the winning option.

At one third of the investments needed to set up a DSL operation, operators could offer speeds of five to 10 times faster than DSL with optical ethernet.

The technolog was especially interesting for companies or large residential buildings close to old fibre optic rings around cities. ``Obviously it cannot serve 100 percent of the market,'' Benhamou said. "

Mang's note: 3com has major investment in an metro-optical company called "Attrica" which maybe building the above product. I am not sure and just guessing.
