If the size of the "market" for NREN is on the order of a million
users then I can't see why this isn't enough of a motivator for
the commercial carriers to rush out and capture the potential
gross revenue stream of ~$400 million/year or are they thinking
it looks better if they could make it into a Billion dollar a year
business?
