But wouldn't be the case of the elephant pausing for the dropped peanut. I'm still optimistic for the November announcement.

[GTE in stealth mode]

<<<How and when...who knows. I think they are operating in "stealth mode" for the next few months.>>>

Well, no one can say they haven't had practice.

I noticed in NN's annual report they'd added 12 new customers for their MainStreetXpress 36170 switch and yet there aren't any press releases saying who they are.

<<<<<< The strong showing in WAN packet business was driven principally by the industry's flagship ATM system, the MainStreetXpress 36170 Multiservices Switch, which also achieved record revenue, order intake and backlog again this quarter. Both revenue and order intake for this product increased approximately 40% sequentially and were more than triple the revenue and order intake levels in the first quarter of fiscal 1997. There were more than 60 customers for the MainStreetXpress 36170 switch in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 alone, including 12 new customers. The product has now been sold to more than 120 customers throughout the world comprising many of the world's largest service providers.>>>

Wouldn't you like to know who all 120 customers are?

My point being, there's a lot going on even when there's no press. Seems that telcos work in stealth mode a lot.

Incidentally, did I tell you Chuck phoned me this week. :)))
