Sort of OT Does anyone know if the following company relates to Vitesse at all? Competitor? Supplier? I copied this message from a Gorilla Game email list (hope the author doesn't mind!) Has anyone heard of SilkRoad. They claim to have produced proprietary technology (over 200 patents) that can allow one laser to transmit approx. 93 gigabits over a single fibre. This technology is reported to be cheaper to buy and maintain than Wave Division Multiplexing (nearest competitor) and seems to be a big leap in the area of telecommunications. I've looked at their web site and the company is not offering shares at the moment. Could this company become a Gorilla in the bandwidth sector??
