I think Owen's pricing is based on 10Gbps router ports (Owen, correct me if I'm wrong). This is not the only way to sell 10Gbps services. Having said that, in context of home broadband, I was referring to AN's (Access Nodes), particularly based on Active-E (you don't generally place consumer customers directly on to 10Gbps router ports). The 10Gbps ports on an Active-E AN are in the same 1U chassis as the 44x Gig-E ports. And depending on how many you buy from vendors for your Access network, you can get pretty decent deals with good return if you get great uptake and have a sweet price point. Mark.
