Scott, Hi!!! Been doing some homework....picked this up from a speech he made back this fall...sounds familiar huh? Notice the two key names?? :o) Pieces identical....huh? Best, Kemble The next area I want to touch on is broadband communications. You can think about this almost exclusively in the home and small business customer segment. Large businesses have had broadband communications for a fairly long time. When you go to the office you probably have T1 or even T3 access to the Internet and you can pull down video clips at high speed and download huge programs. But in homes in the United States and around the world, this is very rare today. A regular modem is 33.3 kilobits per second or 56 kilobits per second. A cable modem is about 600 times faster. That means that if you are using At Home or Roadrunner or Cable Modem Service, you can pull video on demand at high resolution with full motion and sound. You can have point-to-point video conferencing. Your wait time to the Internet goes away. More than 50 percent of people who get a cable modem replace their personal computer in the first year, because the bottleneck has now shifted. It is no longer the line, it is that old 486 that isn't good enough anymore. This is something that is going to bring the Internet into homes.
