Interview brief from Multex.com (Phil Leigh, Internet analyst for Raymond James) TIA] Where do you see the Internet going? [PL] This year, we entered the multimedia-Internet stage, with REALNETWORKS (RNWK) and BROADCAST.COM (BCST) as paragon examples. Later in the year, the "tele-presence" Internet will become prominent, in which we'll feel like we're attending a meeting without actually being there physically. A good example is NETROADSHOW.COM, now owned by BROADCAST.COM. The ubiquitous Internet will come after that, and the companies likely to participate are XERCOM, GENERAL MAGIC (GMGC), LERNOUT & HAUSPIE SPEECH PRODUCTS (LHSP), MICROSOFT (MSFT) and AMERICA ONLINE. Then, 10 years down the line, will come the virtual-reality Internet. Watch for companies that provide bandwidth, 3-D fast processing, and software compression capabilities. Companies such as LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS (LVLT), QWEST COMMUNICATIONS INTERNATIONAL (QWST), CIENA (CIEN), and 3DFX INTERACTIVE (TDFX).
