Mark, this announcement (or one like it) was inevitable, IMO. Do you have a sense for how the mechanics of the marketing and sales, and subsequent operations-level activities, will be administered? Is this something that will be left to the end user to orchestrate, or will one of these firms (CSCO or MFNX) step up to the plate and asssume the role of integrator? It presents an interesting, if not curious, set of possibilities. CSCO is not a service provider, per se, and MFNX's core competence does not reside in the internetworking sector. Rather, their prowess is in laying fiber and handling Layer 1. I'm going to look at this some more. Sure is interesting. Regards, Frank Coluccio
