Tom all sounds good except one way internet service. Too me, one way internet service is a looser. If that's the best they can do, then just hope for TV revenues.

And, just another TV offering in an already saturated cable market sounds questionable. Are they going to compete on price?

All the big satalite companies are trying to sell it already and it sounds too complicated and expensive to be practical. This is a real blow to my hopes that we would see high speed two way commnication from MMDS that would compete with ADSL and cable modems, and even LMDS.

Also, if there is some fundamental block to 2 way comm, we won't ever see interactive tv. We've got to get 2 way. There must be some hold up waiting on te FCC to approve the trials in Boston. Any news yet how these trials are going?

Your thoughts?

Mark
