Well Tim, I see you're upping your max price by $5.00 already. Well, If you are game, I accept your wager at the new price. I'll go in for up to $50 (Pizza, steaks - anything you want).
Oh, by the way. Did you see ASND's latest "Major" contract, announced today?
Ascend Communications today announced a major contract with Telewest Communications to extend its UK cable network. Beating off competition from 10 other companies, Ascend will integrate its CBX 500 ATM switches within Telewest's existing Frame Relay network, one that is already based on Ascend's world leading B-STDX Multiservice Frame Relay switch.
The enhanced network, which will attain national coverage over the next two years, allows Telewest to offer both business customers and residential customers leading-edge cable services. The current Telewest Frame Relay network supports data traffic, however, ATM was necessary in order to support integrated services such as voice and video, and to upgrade the available bandwidth. |
