To: Warren Gates who started this subject From: CanynGirl Monday, Oct 23, 2000 1:09 PM ET Respond to Post # 8988 of 8994 Briefing.com contends there will be a broadband glut due to lack of demand for last mile broadband: "This bears repeating: the end user market for broadband internet use is smaller than everyone thinks. " Message 14638685 To which I reply: pfffffffffffffffft! Everyone I know and their mother wants dsl or cable. THEY JUST CAN'T GET IT. Period. The problem is a supply side problem. Whether it's the installation process, techical issues, lack of plug and play, or they plain don't want to do it so they don't hurt their T1 revenues, the problem is still on their side. I don't pretend to know all the issues, but I do know, I know no one who DOESN'T want it. And I know no one who hasn't tried, in some cases for years, to get it. Try as they might, Briefing.com still can't add value. JMHO ofc. cg
