re: Currently, copper wire and Digital Service Lines dominate the "last mile" linkage from the network to the business or home. But as the price falls and the technology is tweaked to use optic fiber for that final connection, it could exacerbate the shortage. That is a ridiculous statement. Mainly the last part. We are so far from having fiber to our homes, even fiber to the curb, that it's not worth worrying about or even plugging it into the equation. It's years, no a decade away maybe even that is too soon, before it will happen, in the mean time the combination of cable, xDSL, and wireless should fill the gap nicely. Greg
