You want to put a box like this to analyze and dozen OC-12c(s)? I know that

A break is exactly what everyone is getting right now; but not what you 
mean. Look at
telecom stocks and valuations going down... You've gotta sell more than 
just best-effort data;
I wish more of the operators got a bit more adventurous and started to look 
at additional things to
do in the network (not all boxes are evil). We have best-effort data; lots 
of it; it's not enough anymore.
Quality is the name of the game (I think). I would start with improving 
network security and availability
and see if Enterprises want to buy extra services (I think so).
