I hope you don't stay out too long. I am surprised that nobody seems to be talking about the ATT deal. It has the potential to start things up for the whole telcom industry. Basically, everyone is sitting on the sidelines waiting to see who will own what once ATT decides who to get married to for ATT Broadband. It will either be MSFT/Comcast or AOL or they will IPO it. Once decided, everyone will start making capex budget plans. Right now nobody can do anything until they know what they will own and who they will be competing against. ATT said they will decide by the end of this month.
