Larry, Good timing! That is exactly what I am referring to. There appears to be some major cracks in the armor. Where is TI and what do they have to say about this? Thanks, Steve

[Hotwire a threat?] I wouldn't let Paradyne scare me. They've been pushing Hotwire CAP-based ADSL for several years and they're fighting a fierce battle. Since TI's doing the chip, there's no need to waste time worrying. As for CAP, I spoke with one of BA's managers who said their ADSL offering would support the CPQ-INTC-MSFT consortium line code and then he quickly added it would be flexible --- able to support either CAP or DMT. Ivan Seidenberg, BA COO and CEO-designate, gave a rallying cry for deregulation, specifically any efforts that would increase competition in data services. BA has developed a subsidiary called BA Network Integration to compete in this field. Every other sentence involved bandwidth and the need to get federal regulators to cooperate in jump-starting the industry. If you have time, check out COMS' website for Benhamou's speech and A's site for Seidenberg's. If they're available, you might want to post here. Now, I'm off to the show. Cheers! Pat
