I don't see TDM going away entirely any time soon because it still comes 
in handy for things like out-of-band management, etc, plus nowadays there 
is lots of TDM gear on the secondary market that can be picked up 
dirt-cheap.


All the same, the price of gear dropping through the floor on the secondary
market is usually a pretty good indication that the technology is played out,
because supply-and-demand says that demand for the gear will keep the price
propped up until the demand goes away - which usually means the tech is
played out.

Anybody got a counter-example? ;)
