Jim, I have not read the article yet, but I have to admit I am tilt mode most days. The amount of information that comes pass my screen and desk is incredible. Information overload is a common reality. Most of the bandwidth increase is to give you old services in new ways. The Sony Playstation is a good example. It hopes to eventually provide games, network-ed games, a CD, DVD and MP3 player, and access to the internet. None of these services are new. What they hope to sell you is more billable bytes as they want you to get those services from them. ****************************** ****************************** Currently no leadership in the market.
