>>I think the revelation last conference call that VxWorks is being used in nearly all cable modems and over half xDSL modems also deserves mention, especially seeing what a smashing success the Broadcom IPO was on Friday.<< Can anyone supply more info about the statement that VxWorks is being used in "nearly all" cable modems? Seems to me that the only specific announcements I was aware of were HP, 3COM, COM21, and Cisco. Does anyone know if these U.S. Robotics cable modems are using VxWorks? I know that WIND announced a deal last year with 3COM to use VxWorks, but I think it was before the 3COM/USRX merger. The fact that cable modems are starting to show up on retail shelves is significant for WIND... 3Com Extends Distribution of Its U.S. Robotics Cable Modems to Retail Stores in United States and Canada 3com.com
