Ray, do you recall my rather lengthy, sometime tongue in cheek, exchange with Dr. Loop? >>Yes, it would allow a a DS3 service order completion time that is competitive with a wireless provider, if fiber was pre-provisioned to all the right business places. That's already a present tense marching order for most telcos anyway. Maybe fiber+ symmetric VDSL would be only a temporary means to give service, until there is time to come back and serve the customer with fiber. Either way, I'm sure its going to show up on sales brochures of hardware vendors in the not too distant future.<< I've had to smile to myself, at times, when reading these last exchanges. What was it that Yogi Berra said? Deja vu, all over again? Take a look back in the Last Mile Technologies thread, where we discussed this one about a year and a half ago, starting with about this thread: Message 507623 At the time we were discussing wiring the World Trade Center in NYC with DSL techs. That was quite an informative lesson for me, dealing with some real experts... You, Tome Eames, and George Hawley, at the time. That's what I call a Power Team! And you folks never even sent me a bill for consulting services ;-) Frank C.
