Milist di kantor akhir-akhir ini masih rame ngebahas FWL (Fixed Wire Line) apakah mending ditutup saja bak KA Parahyangan atau memang jadi infrastructure untuk service lain (mis. Fixed Broadband), at least back-up untuk Fixed Wireless Access, Seluler atau Wireless Broadband.
Cuplikan artikel dibawah ini, yang mengacu pada hasil survey yang dilakukan IBM, diambil dari situs thehill.com dengan judul “IBM survey: land lines to disappear, mobile broadband to explode over next decade” yang ditulis oleh Kim Hart tanggal 02/26/10
IBM surveyed 8,000 consumers and 60 telecom company executives to get a sense of Internet-related trends over the next decade, showing that broadband will continue to evolve and expand while traditional communications infrastructure--those copper lines we've used to make phone calls for decades--will rapidly disappear.
IBM predicts that the use of land lines will decrease by 95 percent in the next five to 10 years. Conversely, usage of mobile and wireless broadband will increase by 98 percent during the same period.
The company also found that consumers will demand open platforms, where they can access content on all types of devices. In fact, 70 percent of those surveyed said they want to access content on any device-- a computer, TV, phone or netbook--from any provider.
Interestingly, IBM found that 65 percent of consumers expect their telecom provider to maintain their role as simply providing Internet and wireless services. Only one in five consumers expect telecom providers to have a role in the retail and delivery of online content services.

KA Parahiyangan mulai ber-operasi 31 Juli 1971 dan ber-akhir 27 Apr 2010.
KA Parahyangan mencapai puncak kejayaanya pada tahun 1990-2004 sebelum dibangunnya Tol Purbalenyi.
Dengan penumpangnya yang hanya 50% KA Parahiyangan merugi Rp36milyard/tahun.
