I am working on data-over-CATV, and wonder how it is that CATV networks 
are going to be able to deal with large amounts of upstream data, such 
as that produced by videoconferencing, interactive multimedia, etc. The 
small upstream capabilities of the cable modems I've seen (max claimed 
speed 10Mbps), are not going to
be enough, it seems.

What do you think ?
