I think you're very wrong here. For packet delivery of video based
services, I could see a home using 100mb/s between voice, video, and data
within the next 12-24 months. All of the product roadmaps I've been looking
at contain "How to get 100mb/s to the home", "How do we push BRAS/Multicast
deployment closer to the edge", "What is the roadmap for converged services
past triple play?"
