I respectfully disagree Buz,

I believe everything they are telling us. They can't predict the future, they can only report what they expect. The science is progressing beyond my wildest dreams. After all this time and so many researchers analyzing this puzzle, engineered polymers (like what Lightwave is developing) still remain an industry favorite for unlocking the value of photonics. Lightwave Logic is in the lead in polymer based electro optic modulation and the delays that we perceive are not neccessarily a result of a "problem with the goo". The photon source is a big one IMO:

By far the biggest speed gains would be realized by on-chip and inter-chip optical interconnects — but so far, there hasn’t been a laser diode that’s small enough or low-power enough to enable the dream of silicon photonics.

Meanwhile it appears as though IBM has a good handle on the waveguide engineering:

I'm not sure if this has been posted before but the Power 8 is looking really interesting:
