I was discussing this topic with a few people on the AOL thread. Hers is Jorge's view. ================================================================ 3d....Yes, I saw it earlier...Actually this news is not of surprise at this point...It has been expected for awhile to fail (free cable access) at this point in the process. The FCC chairman, Kennard, said the FCC may revisit this issue again, and that it is a serious issue that we "should continue to monitor very closely." Also consumer advocate groups are still pushing for open access and may even petition Congress, the article said. Apparently today's "decision" does not preclude another type of FCC ruling that can still be petitioned: ........................... <<Thursday's decision ''has no immediate bearing on our request that the FCC initiate a rulemaking,'' said Andrew Schwartzman, president of the Media Access Project, a nonprofit Washington law firm backing open access. ''It's necessary that they come to grips with this soon.''>> ............... I don't think cable access is the "end-all" to this area of bandwidth and highspeed access...There is a lot of room to grow in the ADSL arena as well... One other thought...This newspiece came out early this morning...All the analysts knew about it after it was announced, in fact they were looking for it to probably be decided like this for some time now. Regards, George ================================================================== This is probable responsible for some of the slide today after earning release. However we still had new coverage initiated on Mspg with a buy rating today as posted by Greg today. Another thing Cable is now without it's problems either. news.com 3d
