As of yet I have no sources at WIC. I will be speaking with someone on Monday in regards to EDD. What do you mean by pipeline experience? You stated that "Callisto's technology is non-proprietary to Rogers, so it would probably make them a preferencial choice among cable providers and end institutional users." Is there technology tied to Roger's? I would imagine they would prefer to leave their options open to other forms of delivery as well. Roger's is having a hard time delivering addressable services whereas satellite and other wireless systems (LMDS and MMDS, etc) already have that ability. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking Callisto's products (I'm not totally familiar with them yet). For Roger's to be able to deliver digital cable to the masses would require an incredible amount of sytem upgrading, they just don't have the money, have you seen their debt? None the less I think true video on demand is an incredible opportunity and will make some company and its shareholders very wealthy.

cheers,

Paul
