Speculation from somewhere that 3 RBOCs were going to do an RFP on some new fiber optic networks. Edit: From Briefing "10:15AM RBOCs expected to announce RFP for optical networks - Pac Growth : Pacific Growth expects SBC, VZ, and BLS to announce a combined Request For Proposals (RFP) soon for optical networks, which would be the industry's first move toward optical networking in the local access network; firm believes ALA is particularly well-positioned to win at least part of this business, and on the optical component side JDSU should trade heavily upon the release of this news and thinks that almost the entire optical industry would also get a boost.
