Mkilloran- Again, I think you and I agree on the cable plant's ultimate value, but I think we differ GREATLY on the time frame for new services to roll out. It's going to be a very long process. It has to be because it's pay as you go. MSOs always climb uphill(understatement) in financing.

Interactive services in 2001? Again, I don't know of any specific stats indicating these have rolled out in any quantity this year or will next. I think the number is close to neglible so I think there are only 'tests' today. Putting the 'capability' in a STB is far different from turning the system on.

Can you find a real deployment of iTV today? I know there are some tests going on in the UK. If you have a url to the actual test results detailing how it works, it would be appreciated.

As you may also know, the FTC threw another monkey wrench in iTV world. If I'm reading them correctly, they want 'open access' on iTV!? What a disaster that would be. Thanks. -MikeM(From Florida)
