Having written several SEC filings I can tell you if it is possible, even in the remotest sense, the lawyers will have it in writing in the SEC filing. I find most of it CYA lawyer talk covering the Company's rear assuming a shareholder were ever to sue.
Are we as shareholders really benefiting from the extra Y2K disclosures which tells us things might happen on January 1, 2000?
You must remember the lawyers in this country have gotten to make a living filing and settling suits, which has caused this society to be overly CYA oriented. I can scare the stuff out of you by quoting from any of your favorite company's SEC filing. The negative words are always there for CYA.
But I think you miss something on the CSCO side. This announcement:
biz.yahoo.com
Com21 DOXport Cable Modem Compatibility Verified as Cisco Interoperable
from April 29th, implies to me that we are on Cisco's side. And if CSCO head-ends are deployed, CMTO modems will follow. The release says specifically: "As part of the Cisco Interoperability Partner program, both companies have been jointly testing their DOCSIS products." If CSCO were trying to knock CMTO out of the box, why in the world would they be jointly testing? Oh, and CMTO's product does work with CSCO's, or at least that is what this release says. So what is the problem?
I think you misunderstand a head end from a modem. Or maybe I do. Or maybe the whole damn market does and that is why we are getting our butts kicked.
Back to the garden. I am getting too worked up!!!
