<b><i>A Bandwidth Drought Is Coming, And U.S. Phone Companies and ISPs Have No Idea What To Do About It</b></i> <br><br><table width="90%" border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" bordercolor="#63635A" bgcolor="#E7E7E2" align="center"><tr><td style="font-size: 12px; font-style: italic;">Given that there are something like 60 million U.S. homes on the Internet and fewer than 20 million of those have broadband connections, you might think I am a bit premature in my complaining about a lack of bandwidth. After all, compared with two-thirds of Americans on the Net, I have plenty of bandwidth, tons of it. But my complaint isn't so much with the amount of bandwidth any of us have, but with the amount that is available. I fear we are falling behind the bandwidth curve and this is going to severely limit the potential of the Internet. </td></tr></table><br><br>Thanks to MrTRS for submitting this <a href="http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/pulpit20030626.html"><b>article</b></a>.<br>
