John, from that link: "Things are accelerating fairly rapidly" in the cable modem arena, said Patti Reali, an analyst with Dataquest. The research firm estimates that 750,000 cable modems were shipped worldwide last year and projects that 1.2 million modems will be shopped in 1999. Looks like shipments have roughly doubled in a year, and at that rate by 2002 they might ship around 10M, and have a total of around 18-20M shipped by then. Given some upgrades, etc, that is also consistent with a figure of 16M or so broadband customers in 2002. Funny how all of these figures seem to converge.
