actually i know a little bit about these black boxes. i have first hand experience... i actually posted a thread about this two years ago. my uncle was the one that helped build and test these black boxes. i cant say much about it but i know the government secretly funded these and subcontracted companies out to hide their involvment. they are already being used by all major isp's and have been for about a year, including comcast. i can tell you one of the major companies responsable for this machine is e.d.s.
