Note especially the paragraph in the previous post: "21st Century's high-speed Internet access service is priced at $49.95 per month for unlimited access, including the HomeWorks(TM) cable modem. Significant discounts are available to customers if this Internet service is purchased in combination with 21st Century's cable television or other telecommunications products."

21st Century doesn't manufacture cable TVs or other telcom products but ZE/LGE certainly do. My guess is that Zenith and LGE are providing 21st Century with 32" SDTVs (wide body) and NC set-top boxes as package options. The deal could be to purchase the NC set top for $299 and the SDTV for $2999 and receive a free years cable hook-up. Or, sign up for a three-year package at $169 per month and get the hardware "free".

If so, this is REALLY BIG for Zenith shareholders. Zenith and LGE would be the only CE companies presently offering a totally integrated digital solution (digital cable modems, digital NC set tops, and digital TVs, digital audio, etc.) to every cable company in the world.
