Re: "I think george gilder pumped terayon and their cable modem boxes, it turns out they weren't anything more than glorified VC's"

I'm guessing here, but I'd gather you bought a DOCSIS compatible TERN modem, the ones Pluvia falsely claimed didn't exist, and which perhaps might as well not have, whatever. As for the S-CDMA boxes which Gilder specifically believed in, it is fair of me to say I personally verified via e-mail that at least one company deploying them was very happy and had(s) no known intentions of switching.

I haven't noticed any news of recent S-CDMA sales by TERN. To speculate that they might pick-up again, would be just that, speculation.

It does seem to me that with file sharing perhaps being here to stay, the S-CDMA 50/50 split between upstream and downstream bandwidth might be highly desirable, I just don't know that the overall bandwidth of any cable modem systems today is enough to really drive sales.
