Agree completely. Actually, I think the whole modem market is in trouble. People want more speed but there is real question as to whether going beyond 33.6 makes any sense. Low 40s seem to be real world speed limit given state of POTs in most areas, sometimes worse.

And, w/Intel going hungry for a while, couldn't we expect a renewed emphasis on NIC's? What if they put the 100/10 on a low cost corp. motherboard, to increase aggregate profits?

Regards, Doug
