Az Edupage ma'r magyarul is olvashato  (ekezetek nelkul), es ingyenesen
megrendelheto a <subs-edupage at hungary.com> cimen. Ez a valtozat azonban
nehany napos kesesben van az eredeti angol valtozathoz kepest.  Az
alabbiak az altalam legerdekesebbnek talalt hirek azok szamara, akik nem
jaratjak sem az angol, sem a magyar valtozatot.

TELECOM MANUFACTURERS, NETWORKERS UNITE TO SPEED UP INTERNET
Telefon AB LM Ericsson, Northern Telecom, Siemens AG, 3Com, and UUNet are
investing $40 million in Silicon start-up Juniper Networks in the hope of
jump-starting efforts to speed up Internet networking technology.  Juniper
plans to combine advanced chip technology with a new type of switch router
to achieve top networking speeds of 2.4 gigabits per second and throughput
rates of 60 gigabits per second or more.  Meanwhile, Cisco Systems is
already running field trials of its Gigabit Switch Router, which offers
speeds up to 622 megabits per second, and plans for next year call for
boosting speeds up to 2.5 gigabits per second.  "We're very interested in
what Juniper is doing, as well as several other start-ups and some
established companies such as Cisco and 3Com," says MCI senior VP Vinton
Cerf, who notes that to keep up with traffic, "we are going to require
speeds of 2.4 gigabits between our nodes by next year."  (Wall Street
