As far as ATM CPE competitors in the WAN and LAN market, I am not aware of a company with the quality of ATM edge products out there. Though I presume they may well emerge (and I would likely invest in them). Bradley -- Isn't this fun???? <g> Later -- Pat

Bradley:Thx for those links. That pow.wow was embedded with polymorfic encapsulated jargon for most lay readers. My simplistic take was as follows. a: Existing voice technology circuit switched Telcos . b: Existing W.A.N's and TELCO's with packet and circuit switch capability. c: L.A.N's with ISDN,Frame relay and ATM capability. d: Potential for DSL technology for last mile. Ideally all move to fibre and ATM. Not feasible for cost reasons . Hence to accommodate all 4 , you need a hardware switch/soft ware Router of sorts. Would appreciate if you could help out with the ommissions and corrections. Thx.
