Your point about DSL is well taken wrt telco sluggishness, but it isn't entirely correct, IMO. There's an increasing number of xDSL installations to industrial parks and large multi dwelling structures where a CLEC or CAP is bringing fiber to a common easement, and DSL is being deployed in a fan out manner to each unit. Also, many of the entrenched ILECs, and even some of the data CLECs, are now seeing it beneficial to use ISPs as their agents and sales reps in getting the product out of the door. Your absolutely correct, tho, when you compare to ISDN. There are thousands of RBOC sales representatives who still to this day don't know what the initials ISDN means. Indeed, in this respect, it really does still mean: I Still Don't No. That's one of the reasons why many of the telcos have farmed this product line at the small business market level out to integrators and resellers. ==== Folk lore and cultural affinities play a big role in the likes and dislikes, in these technology preference discussions, wouldn't you say?
