How practical is it really also that you need CRS-1 at the residence for this. I agree with Sean. Since for most people the line card alone costs more than the house. :-)
40Gb/s per slot routers are not that rare at this point. So the notion that you need a crs-1 in order to capitalize on 40G is I think demonstrably false. The amount of link aggregation being done at 10Gb/s would tend to indicate that need for > 40Gb/s links is becoming acute enough to make it a commercially worthwhile problem to solve if not cheap for the early adopters. As consumers we would all benefit from standardization of 40 and 100Gb/s ethernet phy.
