Re: Sprint ION, signing off.

P.S. : A little but of ION lore that I learned from an ex-ION testing engineer: during the last summer of ION (pre 9-11), there was a field trial in Nevada, for Enhanced Sprint ION. This effort was to literally drive optical fiber to the homes of subscribers (similar to the way phone over cable companies do so). Over this fiber was the 8.0 mbs QOS, multiple phone lines, and 200 + cable channels.

Don't make me cry. I've been downlaoding all day from a OC connection and it's been reminding me of my 'ol ION. Downloads of 50MB in seconds...*snif, snif* :-(
