Vendors closing in on 1Gbps using DSL

By the way, I've heard that if you bond 100 copper pairs you
can get absolutely *spectacular* speeds up to distances of
20 feet or so ...

Unfortunately, most of that copper is now badly maintained and rotting
away, and nobody in their right mind wants to deploy new copper plant.
Local AT&T guys tell me that their biggest problem with U-verse
installs is just finding usable pairs in the old (often buried) cable
bundles -- and then praying that they *keep* working.
