    [VPN] Broadband: Get ready for a trip on the wireless side

    "In addition to wireless, the other trend Dzubeck is excited about is VPNs. He
    predicts VPNs will deliver more WAN services and on a much greater scale to
    companies than they do today. That means service providers will need to build
    IP-based networks on which they can deliver high-quality, guaranteed services."
