Here is a solution to this problem!

Landmark International........ a partner with COVD. Ticker LMKI. DSL ISP/ One Stop Shopping for DSL needs for companies. LMKI uses automation. They may,in the future deliver there wonderful product to the Individual DSL user. You can listen to interview on Wallstreet Reporter.COM, with the Founder & Chairman William Kettle, and the HOT SHOT CEO Bryan Turbo, he is SHARP. They have invented a real private network, stays on Landmarks backbone. Listen to this and look how the stock has been trading. This company has a wonderful future very exciting. The word is getting around about Landmark!

Make sure you take a look. I AM LONG TERM, LONG, ON THIS COMPANY!!

Howard:

I am intimately familiar with this issue as I am situated about 38,000 ft from my CO.

PacBell is presently undertaking a beta-test program that will involve the deployment of NGDLCs at several remote sites that are, or will be, fiber-fed from the CO. Two COs in the State have been selected; one of which serves my residence.

The pilot program has rec'd SBC corporate approval & is now in the early stages of conceptual design. Provisioning will be limited to those areas served by a pair gain system -- which mine is. I estimate provisioning of DSL on my lines by year-end.

If the program is successful, I envisioned broader deployment of this cutting edge technology in other select areas served by PacBell over the course of next year. Typically, these will be in areas where there is "expressed demand"(aka upper-income areas).

Since your situated in tech-saavy San Jose, I would expect a more aggressive effort in that part of the state. Alternatively, you may want to go with cable when it becomes available.
