Joe, I took Kristin's response as a polite way of blowing me off. On PAIR's web page they say "PairGain Technologies, Inc. is a world leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of advanced communications systems. Founded in 1988, PairGain responded quickly to a new Bellcore standard for achieving high-speed, digital transmission over copper wire. The company today is the market leader of High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL) products and systems." They sure don't act like a world and market leader. Purebull

Panic selling slowing down.....What's next?.....panic buying? This is a wild ride...best thing to do is nohthing....let the smoke clear....analyze the news...check other threads...WSTL...AWRE...AMTI, etc., to evaluate the impact of this technology vs. ADSL. That is how I see it...will this MVL be a stop-gap measure or will it be a knock-out punch against ADSL? It seems to have some compelling features...low price...low power consumption...splitterless design...long range...and apparently very little spectrum interference, which is VERY important to the RBOCS. But is it fast enough to do what the WinTelPaq consortium want to do?....Probably not. Is that important?...Yes, but how important remains to be seen down the road......and the beat goes on....while I'm losing my a--! Glad I have most of my money in utilities and bonds, may not be too long before its all there. Regards, Knip
