Eric, >>COMS took back a lot of the "old" 56k stuff to re-burn it in V90 form.<< Interesting note on the "old" modems -- My understanding is that, this was done, not just to clear inventories, but because they can get more profit for a v.90 modem than a non-v.90 modem which the user would buy at a discounted price and use free upgrade software. This could turn out to be a sharp move. We'll see. The main thing is the ISP's have to convert to v.90 standard. I think the ball is rolling on this and we'll get more details next week. >>I'm waiting for the CC with a grin on my face <g><< Don't get too overconfident. Us longs all still have "scars" from last quarter. joe PS Any sign of CSCO slowing down this year?
