Unfortunately they picked IDSL (some sort of ISDN/DSL hybrid).
Pairgain has been successfully using HDSL as T1 extender.
And has lots of credibility in this area. Ascend also
picked CAP-ADSL (not a standard, and likely to be subsumed
by DMT).... What they need is RADSL and quick, since these
old copper lines are unpredictable. I'm afraid IDSL is too little
too late. Didn't USWest pass on it? I thought initially they
were looking at it with Ascend...
