I left the newspaper at the office today so I can't be sure, however I believe that the article does not really discuss specific companies. Instead, as I recall, it focuses mainly on the race for acceptance, eventual market share, and potential hurdles each technology faces.
It is a rather general article that probably won't provide anyone on this thread with too much surprising info. It does discuss how consumers will be able to determine if their location qualifies for working ADSL via color grids each retail outlet will provide,to cut down on the number of people who buy the product, only to find out they cannot get the service due to distance restrictions.
As I recall, the article (and related graph) does indicate that ADSL will be the big winner, especially in the long term, and how the regional bells are about to roll this technology out aggressively in the future.
I was surprised (pleasantly) that the graph indicated such a wide discrepancy between the eventual winner between ADSL and cable, since it seems there are a wide range of opnions on this subject and that, in truth, the verdict is still out. |
