Just a couple of comments about the 10-K... The statements that 10GHz electronics is "less stable" seems like an attempt to put doubt into the minds of investors about NT's capabilities and future trends. It's not a serious problem. The state-of-the-art for building microwave circuits lies well beyond this limit and NT has such capability. It sounds like CIEN is staking their claim on many-channel systems working at 2.5 Gb/s. Others are moving ahead to fewer channels at 10 Gb/s. It's not clear which, if either, is better but CIEN has made their bet.
