If MSL does just get put off to 2013 and not canceled outright, perhaps this means that MTO can be re-instated with a program re-start sometime in 2009 or 2010, after most of the CEV development money will have been spent?

I *really* want that fat data pipe to make MSL a real telepresence explorer. If we're going to do this, we really should do it *right*!
