Can you say HyperTV.

I can. Too bad the press folks can't. Also, it says that the cable and internet sites will mirror and support each other, but not that they would be integrated into one. If you just have a web site and a similar cable channel, then you don't need HyperTV. HyperTV would allow the two to converge. The pessimist in me thinks that if they had designed AHN to be a convergent network from the beginning, they would have mentioned hte convergence even if they left out mention of IATV.

I think that eventually AHN will be a candidate for HyperTV, but unfortunately at this time I do not think IATV is involved. I think we would have seen some more obvious signs were they involved. In a year or two, quite possibly this will be a candidate for HyperTV. At least Fox is developing TV and Internet assets in cooperation with each other, rather than just developing TV assets. That's certainly a step in the right direction.
