Was anything mentioned in the conference call related to ad-revenues for books/magazines/etc? What are you referring to? If you mean e-books, Henry is working to solve the chicken/egg problem. That is, no distribution of devices and very little content created for those devices. Also was anything mentioned with regards to guide deployment in Europe/Asia? Henry said Europe represented a market opportunity 60% as great as that in the U.S. but that it was a more difficult market because only Germany and a couple other small pockets are well cabled. My impression is that he's pressing as hard in Europe as in U.S. No memory of any mention of Asia.
