NTT (http://www.ntt.co.jp) had about the same demonstration in 1995 (! - search wired.com-archives for 'soliton'): 1 TBit with 10 GBit-sources x 10TDM x 10WDM, but they also claim to have these lines in the market this year (see c't-Magazin i. 1/98 p. 64). And, yes, together with optical routers, switches and the other stuff.
To have something working in the labs does not necessarily mean, you can deliver a fair implementation that is useful to your customers.
But I do not believe it is really true, before I see it on their list of offers. Even NTT is better in announcing than implementing.
And by the way: a Terabit per second even exceeds memory-Bandwith (RAM) by at least some degrees of magnitude!
Ups, I did not know c't-magazine was mainstream-press. To me it seems c't is a more specialist computer-mag read mostly by IT-Pros, nettime-posters linux-freaks and students, nothing for the mainstream. Correct me if I should be wrong.
What about core-voltages with .18 micron-chips
on
K6-3 on Monday

Noone seems to care about the fact that a lot of Super-7-boards do not support core-voltages of less than 2.1 volts, which could result in the neeed for a new motherboard to run the faster types of AMD K6-3s which shall be produced in a.18-micron-process and therefore possibly need a core-voltage of 1.9 or 1.8 (or even less) volts.
Do you have any information on that matter? I did not find any.
