George thanks for your input.I think that
xDSL has equipment in the central office connected to the last mile.
The voice is split off at the co...this WAS my worry as the ISP
will no longer need these 56k modem banks because the co sends
to the isp via a multiplexed high bandwidth pipe....In browsing
the ascend site it looks like they have quite a few xdsl products
and that the TNT can somehow be populated with xdsl modems for use
in the co.

Does anyone know anything about ascends xDSL products?

George the cable modem solution is really picking up steam with
athm and msft getting involved this really could happen fast
The one thing to remember is it is NOT A CAN WE DO IT ISSUE
SO IF THE DEMAND IS THERE ($$$$) IT CAN HAPPEN PDQ.Anyone who
uses the internet alot knows how nice it would be to have
dedicated fast bullit proof connection

I am going to see who the equipment providers are on the cable
modem side and see where ascend fits in.Anyone an expert on this?
Does ascend have any equipment for the cable modem industry?
