Did any one else note Webster's contribution over the weekend (sorry, Webster, for not responding to your post) where he/she suggested that Qphiles "follow the money"? The idea being that if HDR was achievable with the (simple?) insertion/addition of a card to the BS, and with MSM4500 and, down the road, MSM5500 chips, this is not likely to generate lots of warm fuzzy embraces from the infrastructure suppliers, NT, LU or even CSCO (where there is a space for the web routing) because there's not lots of large contracts to be won. At least that was what I thought was the jist of his/her post.
