I’m still on vacation here, but of course that doesn’t mean the news stops. Motorola racked up another DOCSIS 3.0 win today with Japan’s largest broadband operator, Jupiter Telecommunications (J:COM).

Even as CableLabs certification waves roll on, channel-bonding deployments continue around the world for those who don’t want to wait. Particularly in parts of Asia where the 100 Mb home is expected, waiting for channel bonding isn’t really an option.
