Combined with virtualization, the company’s new mega-bandwidth equipment promises to supercharge data centers. A network switch that’s capable of routing 15 terabits of data per second–the equivalent of moving the entire contents of Wikipedia in a hundredth of a second, or downloading every movie available on Netflix in about 40 seconds. Now this is something that definitely will give way to IPTV and HD video on demand. The HD-DVD/Blu-Ray war has ended. Save the planet stop using plastic media all-together.

Joy to the world, the iPhone’s here
Of coolness we shall sing.
Let shopping carte prepare some room,
make way for consumer boom.
For a phone that does great things,

And we’ll pay damn early termination fees.
