Brian,
Something that you might consider is that the STRM acquisition may also have been motivated by the multiservice (read; voice) capabilities and knowledge. The STRM products were the first that provided enterprise voice/data capabilities for CSCO. This is obviously a major focus now.

This is not to say that the ATM and FR products and presence in the service provider market were not the key motivators. But CSCC certainly did not have products in the multiservice space.

Just a thought,
JXM
