How come noone commented on this excerpt from the AT&T release posted on News Only this morning? While not a formal announcement, this does show ASND equipment will be used in a big way in the buildout. <<In addition, the carrier is expected to add new multiservice ATM switches - primarily from Ascend Communications Corp., according to analysts - at up to 200 points in the network to provide additional user-to-network interfaces for frame relay, ATM and IP services. By year-end, in the backbone AT&T will have completed 52 SONET rings and, like other major carriers, will attempt to unify its various voice and data networks over a unified ATM switching infrastructure.>>
