I still believe that part of the "family of transporters" are done and have been for sometime. I think as you know I feel that we are being held up by Microsoft. For these major Telcos such as SBC to be throwing down Billions of dollars for Fiber to the Node and no true Last Mile solution out there just doesn't make sense. You don't throw Billions down without a concrete plan. Of SBC's 18 million customers involved in the Fiber rollout 17 million are only getting Fiber to the Node. Which means they need a last mile solution. Since Microsoft has been doing testing with SBC on Microsoft TV I think that there is enough evidence to at least run this possibility through your mind.
