Hi Louis, Larrie, Lucent's announcement implies more than just voice conferencing, they're talking data as well. But regardless, this particular announcement doesn't imply Lucent is too far ahead. Others are working on similar things. But Lucent is a very good company. They do have a lot of cash and a lot of interesting stuff going on, they are a company to look at if you want to spend that kind of money. I prefer the smaller companies that will double/triple rather than the bigger ones that have slower but more dependable growth. And Larrie, they have a DVG gateway they announced that will compete with FTEL's directly, except LU's is more expensive (at least that's what was announced). -Atin
