Verizon Nabs High-Speed China Link

A Reuters newswire article, via CNN/Money, reports that:

Verizon signed an agreement Monday with five Asian telecom companies to build the first high-speed, trans-Pacific undersea cable system directly linking the United States and China, according to the company.

The planned $500 million project will offer an alternative to the single low-capacity cable that now provides the only direct link between mainland China and the U.S.
