the Soccer match in the Uk on Aug 22nd will bring alot of attention to sports programming and individual camera views.

ACTV will get some good press from this event.


Why will ACTV get good press when it's not ACTV technology being used? Won't the company providing the interactive technology get the press? Or are you saying that this event does use ACTV technology? Or are you saying that because this company in Britain is doing the same thing that ACTV is doing and someone may hopefully make the connection between the two and say "those who want this same type of service can get it soon in the US thanks to ACTV..."

If you're hoping for the latter, I wouldn't count on it too much. It may happen, it may not, but ACTV PR is completely inept, and someone may instead do an article on interactive tv offerings forthcoming and focus on Wink and WGAT much to our chagrin. Then again, we could get another Newsday-esque article (not that this did squat to the stock price.)
