I could have sworn that Ciena said it still had three 10% customers

James - My notes show QWEST, XO (if I heard correctly) and GTS were the 10% customers for the year, for a total of three. This will be disclosed in the 10K.

However, I went back to the Lightreading article and they said this: "It also increased the number of 10-percent customers (customers who make up more than 10 percent of the company’s revenue) from three to four this quarter.

So maybe both you and LR are correct; the difference being whether we are talking about the 4th quarter sales or total year sales? Unfortuneately, my notes do not reflect anything about Q4 10% customers.
"
