I sure would like to know what was said on Cox's earnings conference call. ON24 had an interview that many of Cox's investors were not pleased that Cox had an analyst only call.

"We recognize the importance of focusing new technologies on the core cable business and have developed applications that educate customers and increase their understanding of the services offered by their cable company. This will become even more critical as more advanced interactive television services are introduced," said PRASARA President Robert Montgomery.
