Agreed, the ATT/TCI merger will accelerate the RBOC's entry into the xDSL market but for the near term effect on nervous investors a multi-billion dollar commitment by ATT/TCI of cable technology to the home will be negative. I am and will remain long. My reason for posting was to try to give an alternative reason for todays price decline. Chris

<< It is possible that the ATT/TCI deal will help accelerate the RBOCs' deployment of xDSL as a competitive reaction. >> It sure isn't likely to give them a feeling they can slacken the pace of xDSL rollout. The threat of cable-internet-access is the telcos' headache -- and PAIR is the leading maker of aspirin.
