(Speaking purely for myself, and thoroughly demonstrating my relative ignorance on the topic, but also opening up an opportunity to become better educated...) You may find that optical providers don't really want to mix 1G/10G waves in on systems that are running Nx100G waves on the fiber. With

It is a good point about the conduit diversity. Lots of guys in the Wiltel conduit, for example. Right now there are a lot of new regional fiber optic networks and also some new dark fiber networks (one is connecting all the Trans-Atlantic landing stations and telecom hotels in New Jersey).

I have been looking at optical wave carriers for some long haul 1G/10G across the US. All to major cities and well known POP's. I am finding that there are not a lot of carriers who are offering wave services, usually just ethernet/MPLS. Particularly across the North west. Can someone shed some
