Pat, as you know CSCO's CEO is supporting strongly IP.Yesterday, I have listening to Q&A of CSCO cc.Jon Chambers, when asked!, stated that in "new networks" which a designed to data,IP is preferred solution, but in those designed for data, voice and vidio ATM makes sence.Also,old networks which are moving into "new networks" go with ATM.In next few months BT,MCI, Swiss Telecom,Telestria(?)and WS West will announed preferred vendors for new contracts .Some need edge switches , some backbone.He was very vegue about CSCO in wireless acces, like LMDS.
