Cable is shared upstream only. WIth S-CDMA you can get 14Mbps upstream...more than you'll ever need.

DSL standards... don't exist....well, not one...many. They have a while (years) to get to convergence. Cable is there with DOCSIS/MCNS.

Copper to over 50% of the homes in the US can't support DSL as it requires clean copper to work well. Infrastructure's not there. Cable plants are in all they need are clients (up to the user), set top boxes with IP, and a VoIP enabled router in the cable plant.

TOday I'd say cable is better postioned than DSL.
