"GTE and AOL In DSL Deal?" Check It Out >>>( comments anyone?)<<< "Copyright c 1998 TeleChoice, Inc. April 1, 1998 -- The San Jose Mercury News is running a column that leaks a potential AOL/GTE deal that the paper claims will be announced shortly. Adam Lashinsky writes that AOL and GTE will launch DSL service in five cities for as little as $50 per month. The service would be available in San Francisco, Phoenix,Boston, Washington, D.C., and Birmingham, Ala., says Lashinsky, quoting an unnamed financial analyst source. TeleChoice believes that this is out of the GTE Internetworking group, formerly BBN. TeleChoice also believes that GTE ILEC is on the verge of its long-awaited announcement. We expect an announcement of the ILEC DSL plans within the next two weeks, and that the vendor selection will send some waves through Wall Street. More on this later." If you want to check out Lashinsky's story, try this URL: mercurycenter.com. Is westell equipment still the only vendor being used by GTE?

dave-- i think the chip delays may have something to do with it. i am a little dissapointed that we dont have something by now. on the chip front, we simply do not know enough about either at this point. from MOTs PR on CG, i am assuming that there is a DSP core in CG, so it may be more programmable than the original design. i guess we just have to wait and see what happens. shoudl be interesting. on the one hand, if TXNs solution isnt that great, that gives us the upper hand with them. personally, i like the position the company is in now with its suppliers. i did find pipers comment funny. he is right, TXN doesnt care about anyone other than TXN. most companies dont care about anyone but themselves. what they care about is moving their product. and TXN needs us to do just that. all the big players have their silicon solution set up. so, TXN has to play ball with WSTL if they want C6 to be anything other than a novelty. good luck to all, trey
