if the truck roll was holding things up we would see a back log in installs in the upgraded areas and there is none.

Do you *know* that? I sure don't.

Self install kits will certainly help most in areas that are newly upgraded. However they will also help in deepening penetration into established areas by getting those people that are too lazy or too busy to deal with waiting for the cable guy.

Will it double the install rate? I doubt it. But *maybe* the first time its available there will be an extra surge. And if they count anyone who has bought the kit as a "subscriber" they just might hit that 3 million (worldwide) target.
