Re: SBC's Project Pronto List of Key Vendors LiPolymer- Yahoo seems to be down now(or it's my ISP), but from what I gather this list may interest you: Message 11796491 Cisco should also be added to the above list of key vendors. Cisco announced an important MOU(if MOUs are important) with SBC not too long ago. You could check the CSCO news to find it. As far as your, "turnkey," question, I think Alcatel is the only company that falls into that category. HTH. -MikeM(From Florida) MOU- memorandum of understanding HTH- hope this helps

LiPolymer- Now that I am able to read the SBC Pronto PR, I'm confused. "Under the FCC ruling, which grants a waiver of the merger conditions for Project Pronto assets, SBC will offer DSL service from the neighborhood gateways on a wholesale and non-discriminatory basis to competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs), including Advanced Solutions Inc., SBC's data subsidiary." Why is this so good for SBC? I thought with FCC ruling 99-238, SBC was trying to get out of this requirement? Is this just some kind of political gesture that, in the real world of RT real estate, offers little to the CLECs? -MikeM(From Florida) RT- remote terminal(needed to get fiber closer to the subs)
