a decision, one needs enormous amounts of information. But once you've managed to gather that information and are
just about to make a decision a new technology comes along and sends you back to the drawing board."

can't get into the access arena because of the enormous scale of the activities required. So in general the deployment
of new broadband technologies are delayed and windows of opportunity missed.
