Yeah...but no one was talking about America no longer being a world technology leader. That's not even close to the subject at hand. At that was said was that Bell Labs was shut down in the US by Alcatel...
Sorry, I'll wait for Sony's Blu-Ray Transmission lines... even if they cost triple Alcatel-Lucent's HD internet lines. I hate these gigabyte transmission wars! Only the consumer gets hurt... ;)
This is old, but what the hell..."We could have seen some amazing innovation here."Right. I saw it as "We could have seen some really innovative things had Alcatel not shutdown Bell Labs in the US." You saw it as "America doesn't make anything innovative anymore." Do you see where the huge leap in logic occurred? No one was talking about America not being innovative. You're just seeing what you want to see.

Wow! That's a lot of data in flight at once. I calculate roughly 16 GByte (probably more).
