-= Pete Replied to Dave Hatch about: CPS Rates =-

G'day Dave

 DD> Cables modems will not be available for another 18months - 2
 DD> years.

 DH> It is rumored that I'll be able to hit Optus for an early shot
 DH> in September.

 DH> It is also rumored that the early shot is an excellent idea,
 DH> since a full kit of cable modems will saturate the cable by at
 DH> least 10x overload - cutting the throughput by 90% when everyone
 DH> gets on, if that's actually so.

 DH> Both to be seen, proof of the pudding et al.  (And no doubt
 DH> flavoured by early product not working at all/working
 DH> poorly/stuffing up at random/eventually getting fixed after it
 DH> no longer matters..:-(

You paint a dark picture Dave, Think i'll just stick with the USR and
PSTN :-) 

     Pete.
