ING Barings(Rob Kaimowitz) came out with this this morning--AOL now going to be available via set top box via GMH DirecTV--4.7 million subs:

"· Interactive Product #1: Set-Top-Internet-Box; A National Branded
Partnership (like AOL) Seems Likely. The most important of the three new
interactive products, in our view, is the advanced multi-media set-top box.
This product will include a full-blown Internet browser and will combine the
full functionality of the Internet, bandwidth off the satellite combined
with accelerated graphics and unique content stored on a high capacity hard
drive. We expect the product to be formally introduced within the next 8
weeks.

· We strongly believe that DirecTV's national footprint and large subscriber
base combined with the technical advantages of a digital satellite system
should lead to a meaningful partnership with a nationally branded content
provider the likes of an America Online."
