We're big. We're bad. We're broadband?

3:45 PM -- It's Day 3 here at Globalcomm 2006, and I'm sure everyone who has been at the show is wondering the same thing: When did Light Reading become a broadband provider?

The answer is: I don't know. I just work here. But the prospect is exciting indeed. I will call someone in operations to see if they can possibly hook me up with a new broadband connection.

Like you, I want to know the difference between regular broadband and Light Reading broadband. Maybe we're able to provide monkeys-to-the-home (MTTH). Maybe our flavor of xDSL is banana.

Who knows?

I'll report back as soon as I find out.

Harvey is an avid photographer and camera collector – if you accept that compulsive shopping and "collecting" are the same.
