Now look at this headline we have all read released the same day as the negative article I posted on the previous message: June 12, 2000, Issue: 1117 Section: CommWeek Aware leads group of G.Lite backers Then we get the following yesterday and today: Monday July 10, 5:59 am Eastern Time Company Press Release Copper Mountain Certifies Industry's Broadest Range of G.lite CPE Partners in Its CopperCompatible Interoperability Program Folowed by this: Tuesday July 11, 8:59 am Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: IDC While ADSL will be able to co-exist with cable, within the ADSL market, G.Lite will have a tough time surviving with full-rate ADSL. ``When G.Lite was introduced it looked like it had a lot of potential. Its promise of splitterless deployment, lower costs, and lower power consumption are naturally appealing,'' Funasaki said. ``However, in little over a year, full- rate ADSL has caught up considerably, offering splitterless solutions as well, at only a minimal cost premium. To this end, favor has shifted away from G.Lite, and the multimode solution available in the market will be the winner in mass market deployment.'' What a bunch of back biting going on in the sector. One group pushing G.Lite, the other group bashing it! Looks like people are trying to drive the marketplace by press releases. Perry P.
