| Perhaps we're getting there... news from verizon- Looking ahead to 2004 and beyond, Seidenberg noted that, as Verizon continues making its networks faster and more powerful and introduces technology-based products and services, the company will play a key role in delivering the benefits of convergence to the marketplace. "In 2003, we expanded DSL capabilities to 80 percent of our lines, and we continue expanding its availability today," he said. "With our plans for EV-DO, packet technologies and fiber-optic lines, Verizon will commit some $3 billion of capital over the next two years to bring broadband to the mass market. Verizon's next-generation networks will provide a common infrastructure for voice, data and video services. They will link to all kinds of devices - anywhere, anytime. And they will enable a whole new generation of flexible, highly reliable services that can ride on our infrastructure. "Our goal is to let users tap the intelligence in our network wherever they are and put the power of two-way multimedia communications in people's hands," he said.
