In this space CSCO can't compete head to head. CSCO doesn't try. An ISP buys a generic solution. ISPs mostly already have CSCO equipment, so they try to do a vanilla add to preserve backward compatibility. That works, but it doesn't deliver all the goodies that the RS n000 line has. If you don't know in which direction the BB market will drag you, it makes a lot of sense to buy a flexible solution more than it makes sense to reach for the illusive and questionable goal of nominal compatibility. The ISP that sought compatibility with CSCO doesn't lose it by going with RSTN, but they do gain an advantage through RSTN product facility. The question is whether it will hit other ISPs that they are finally ready for RSTN.
