>>BYE FOR NOW !!!!<< Finally, looks like we lost one idiot. Too bad... you guys still have me around. <ggg> I think the best way is just ignore him.... we should not entertain him any more. Quote of the day: "It is better to teach a pig than a fool" (You know who is pig and who is fool --gg-)

I agree Scrapple; the way to play this is now to put the chips in the laggard. Just look at CS in the networking group and you can see how a laggard can play out to a very profitable conclusion. Sell high; buy low; that seems to be the correct order in this situation.

Scrapps...Yes I have been following WSTL for over 1 1/2 yrs (unfortuntely)...WSTL is shipping DSLAMS to BT with the liklihood of BT converting to DMT once available and if WSTL can grab the BEL DMT contract which they are bidding on in three ways, alone, with LU and DSC/ALA...WSTL will take off. Add in the rumors of take over from Fujitsu and/or a merge with PAIR or even a cash infusion by way of strategic investment by BEL (which would show DMT commitment) things are looking OK. There has been some serious accumulation going on over the last three weeks after Preferred put out an accumulation rating with an initial target of $8 (rumor of it being increased to 13ish)...We'll wait and see...AWRE has been the winner so far.

Scrapps..more on WSTL...LU is about to explode into ADSL and if you think WSTL isn't going to be a part of it I suggest you read the page below copied from LU's ADSL home page...This is just one of many pages of information about LU's ADSL info along with WSTL... lucent.com < Integrated ADSL on the 5ESS-2000 Switch This solution lets you integrate ADSL directly into your 5ESS Switch, enabling you to match service with demand, without an expensive overlay. The 5ESS Switch — Integrated ADSL solution is DMT and ATM based allowing you to provide ADSL, POTS and ISDN all from the same system. It supports both full-rate and Lite ADSL using the same line card, with Lite being available through a firmware upgrade. It saves money by eliminating the need for separate, costly voice trunks to carry voice traffic between off-switch devices and the 5ESS-2000 Switch. Instead, integrated ADSL on the 5ESS-2000 Switch is supported directly on a line/trunk unit, where narrowband voice traffic is handled by a regular POTS line card. There is no need to provision a TR-303 voice trunk and no need for additional passes through your main distribution frame, which reduces installation and maintenance costs. In addition, with an integrated solution, you benefit from savings in costly floor space and utilize the efficiencies of one power source. SLC® LinkReach™ Access System Lucent, together with Westell Technologies, Inc., have developed a plug-in ADSL solution for our SLC-2000 and Series 5 Carrier Systems. The solution is based on DMT line coding and ATM transport protocol and is capable of being configured for full-rate o r Lite ADSL service. The solution consists of Central Office based equipment that provides the interface to the data network. It includes the DSLAM LinkReach Access System, a standalone DSLAM for the Central Office, and an ADSL channel unit and statistic al multiplexer located in the SLC remote terminal. Each channel unit contains two ADSL lines per card and fits into three vacant SLC channel unit slots, so you can use your existing power source and minimize your use of floor space, with no need to purcha se more real estate or expensive cabinets. You can put your spare capacity to good use delivering ADSL in those low-take-rate areas without expensive overlays. For Service Providers that want to integrate ADSL into their SLC Systems and have a 5ESS Switch, we also offer the 5ESS LinkReach Access System. The 5ESS LinkReach System provides the flexibility to provide ADSL service from the same shelf to both customers served out of a Central Office or from Lucent's SLC System. The 5ESS LinkReach System is another Lucent and Westell, Inc. solution enabling Service Providers to easily and cost-efficiently offer ADSL service on the 5ESS Switch. It incorp orates ATM packet switching and DMT encoding schemes and supports both full-rate and Lite ADSL. There is common equipment between the DSLAM LinkReach Access System and the 5ESS LinkReach Access System providing additional cost savings opportunities by eli minating the need for different types of equipment supporting different service sets out of the same Central Office. DSLAM LinkReach Access System For installations that require new equipment, you can choose Lucent and Westell's stand-alone DSLAM LinkReach System. It incorporates ATM packet switching and DMT encoding schemes and supports both full-rate and Lite ADSL. It can handle either CO or RT applications with up to 42 lines per shelf (252 lines per system). As with all Lucent ADSL systems, the DSLAM LinkReach Access System will utilize the same CPE and Element Management Systems. Why Lucent? We put your business first. And we know your network like nobody's business. Our innovation arm, Bell Labs, pioneered DSL technology and holds several of the earliest and most fundamental patents related to it. Lucent systems support millions of lines throughout the world. Together, we offer you high-speed data solutions that will deliver performance your customers can rely on.>
