LOL. Perhaps you are right.

At home I have dialup. In the office, of course very fast. But I am there less and less frequently.

I think we need to solve the last five miles to get broadband to me out here (I like my privacy, so avoid cable).

Of course, I could spend more money, or I could move closer to the network, or any number of alternatives I have chosen to forgo. But heck, my son can play safely in woods and streams and fields... and that's what is important to me at this stage of my life.

It's all about choices.

Do you really think CSCO is best poised to benefit from a bandwidth explosion? Routers = bandwidth? Network infrastructure must change to handle bandwidth, and CSCO = router king may not be best positioned to capitalize. How much do you think the explosion benefit will be to them? 2x, 5x, 10x, 100x revenue?
