YOu and me both. (SMILE)

Actually every country will have their own ratings. So PG and SoundView applications would have to be redesigned for each market. My bet is they won't bother with the size of the U.S. market making them very wealthy.

But look at TVL this way. Unlike PG, they are looking past V-chip and are developing infra-red remote technology for keyboards and computer mice. Also they are developing decoders for HDTV and addressable payment systems for pay-per-view. So TVL is looking beyond the "phenomenon of the V-chip"; a pretty gutsy move as the V-chip market won't mature until something like 2005... this is really long range thinking. Another reason to hold for a long time as you put it Pipick.

Cheers,

Graham
