"A third reason for Li's prediction: DSL has more marketing channels than cable modems. Many independent Internet service providers do not have access to cable modem service. They do, however, have access to DSL if they partner with regional Bell operating companies, which many have."

Dennis- No I had not seen that specific report. Thanks for posting it. I have seen similar. Currently I'm of the belief broadband access will be split 40%-DSL, 40%-HFC, and 20% xMDS. Starting in 2001. Over the last few months, I've gained more confidence in both xDSL and xMDS. Previously I had little faith in both.

The above quote from your article kind of makes me chuckle. It leads right into my next post. -MikeM(From Florida)
