T-it for tat

EuroTelcoland is always at its most amusing when similar operator "hot topic" announcements follow one after another in short succession. We've seen this with VoIP and IP TV, and now it's the turn of FTTx. Bloomberg is now reporting (as of about 15 minutes ago) that DT CEO Kai-Uwe Ricke, in a speech in Berlin today, stated that DT would go ahead with its 50-city FTTC deployment regardless of whether it gets regulatory relief or not. So take that.
