@Home and Internet in the 21 century,
I try to ignore market up and down, though it is very volatile, because I bought this stock for its potential future. I know it is a very competitive market, but I believe @Home can make it. Especially if AT&T is behind it.
Here is some scenarios I picture what people will do in 2005. (maybe sooner) which need a lot of internet bandwidth
* Digital TV over the Internet (we get to see whatever TV programs whenever we want, who need a TV guide (it will be online anyway) ?
* People spend 3~5x more time on internet than TV (I do now)
* Talk to a new international friend made from Internet thru Internet Video Phone
* Work @HOME and meeting with peer thru Internet Video Conference
* Shopping, Banking, visiting relatives, entertainment @HOME
* Parents get more time @HOME with their kids running Internet education programs, playing Internet 3D games
* People no more buying musical CDs, they tend to order thru Internet by pay-per-listen
* Remote control our appliances at home thru the portable Internet computer while traveling
* Have sex thru Internet ??? (oh, need an always-on Video connection and CD-like sound quality like what @HOME have).
* (anyone can think of more....)
===========================================
Maybe some of this idea can be another good business in the future.
