ADSL speeds not all they're cracked up to be : An article at nwfusion.com states : >If you believe everything you hear about Digital Subscriber Line >(DSL) technology, you probably think that any day now you'll get >Internet access fast enough to melt phone wires. But the fact is >there is a big gap between what is happening in the labs and the >real world, carrier trials show. Vendors talk about Asymmetric DSL >(ADSL) supporting 8M bit/sec over residential-grade phone lines, >but planned service rollouts will only support speeds from 128K >to 1.5M bit/sec. ''We're just beginning to understand what we have >to tackle,'' said Flynn Nogiueria, marketing director overseeing >GTE Corp.'s DSL trials. ... Links include ADSL primers and articles >and an overview of those GTE trials. Maybe thats why USR spent time testing X2 out before starting a big campaign about its viability and acceptance in the real world. Speaks volumes of their credibility unlike other communication companies who speak from their "Ass-end" and release news regarding products whose major component is missing as its not available for use as yet !! -hitesh
