Ah, I did miss that, you're right.  We don't have very much GPON up where I am.

Adam,

Your point on asymmetrical technologies is excellent. But you may not be aware 
that residential optical fiber is also asymmetrical. For example, GPON, the 
latest ITU specified PON standard, and the most widely deployed, calls for a 
2.4 Gbps downstream and a 1.25 Gbps upstream optical line rate.
