Frank, the theory is this: if I can get 1 mbps at home, why can't I in my office? Lot's of pressure to upgrade the office Internet connection. Businesses will prefer HDSL (or T1) and SDSL over ADSL because of the symmetry they require. ILECs and CLECs not pitching ADSL to businesses because of this. Residential price elasticity estimated at $40-60/mo. depending on performance. MSOs view internet as next frontier, but using cable modems, not DSL. (Don't know any that offer DSL service. Why would/should they???) Bill
