Anyone...re: Watershed article...Is there anyone else with Splitterless DSL? Does WSTL have it? or working on it?

"Splitterless DSL does not require a technician to install the service at
a customer site, and it eliminates the need to optimize the copper phone
line. Current DSL and ISDN hardware require such support, which has
limited their appeal to service providers and customers.

"That's a really big deal for [telecommunications providers]," said John
Hunter, an analyst at TeleChoice Inc., in Northglenn, Colo. "[With
splitterless DSL], they don't have to roll a truck out there to install
it. It's plug and play, which is what everyone is shooting for."

The latest company on the scene with splitterless technology, NetSpeed
Inc., this week announced new, low-cost DSL hardware."

I have no proxy material yet but I am pretty sure you are reading the information relating to the stock options held primarily by Amati staff. These are different than the traded options which probably are not dealt with at all in the proxy material. While I certainly prefer your reading, sadly I feel it is not likely to apply to traded equity options.
