So when will we see companies building vacuum tubes used to speed up the light when crossing large parts of land or maybe the atlantic ?
That is the thing I care about. ;-)
Is anyone doing research on that yet ?

Warning: work in this area can be dangerous. See e.g. the series, ahem I mean feasibility study, bookended by <http://www.amazon.com/The-Collapsium-Wil-McCarthy/dp/0553...>, <http://www.amazon.com/To-Crush-Moon-Wil-McCarthy/dp/05535...>.
(Though admittedly the Queendom did go to rather more extreme lengths to increase the speed of light than mere vacuum tubes, and displayed a cavalier degree of carelessness, indeed insouciance, regarding the fact that keeping trillions of black holes in your solar system in very large arrays moving at well below orbital velocity is insanely dangerous.)
