| Oh, I see...
I guess Cisco has decided that they will wire the rest of the county free of charge.
98% of population already going to be 'highly wired' Lets examine this quote...
- Mr. Giancarlo says this as if 98% of people will be "wired" before WiMAX starts catching on. I am pretty sure that we won't have 98% of anything related to broadband BEFORE WiMAX.
- He states "highly wired", which could mean that many people will have different wire options to choose from, or he incorrectly used a percentage (Stated, provable number of somthing) with an opinion on how wired the population will be, to create a confusing sentence with no real direction. |

Tell that to DirecTV and Echostar... providing a competitive alternative to "wired" cable operators has proven to be a pretty good business model for them.

Hmm..My subdivision has been developed for over 20 years and we're wired all right, wired up real good with over 25,000' of copper via pair gain and no coax at all, and no plans in place to improve it.
"Highly wired"..Stoned installers? Long loop lengths? Too much java?? Pfft.
This falls in the same file as SBC's CEO claiming 100% DSL availability a few months back.

3rd world countries will never allow wimax to be deployed unless it is done by the monopolies. Most countries own a large portion of their communications outlets. Alot of self interest & corrupt practices going on round here. |
