Seamans' original vision was to use phone lines to carry video so that telephone companies could offer interactive television to their customers. He made deals with AT&T Corp. and Bell Atlantic Corp. to develop the technology, but the air went out of his plans when market support for interactive television collapsed. He was ahead of the times on that too.

Great article, Ski. I live in the area but don't read the print ( just wait for a relevant article to show here or on Yahoo, etc.) Sounds like MZ is almost the talk of the town, since recent -Aurora IPO today caught some fire yet again. Looks like we are at the turning point for the stock market. Gotta hedge this. And start the short list. Be a talking to ya.

[ADSL:DMT] I got my Westell modem today from Bell Atlantic and word in Northeast is Bell is trying to ramp-up connections before they loose to cable. BA customer svc isn't on top of the orders and I had to confirm every day until they got the connection date right and the modem out the door. Seems they were short modems even though I ordered an external. I had to complain to a mgr as the modem didn't arrive after (2) follow-up calls.She blamed the whse and had to hand deliver the modem request and track its' progress to make sure it got here. My impression is that they may be innundated with orders and modems may be hard to get ... hope this is BA underestimating demand and not our company having fulfillment difficulties ... OTOH if other bells our ordering our ADSL modems too and we can't keep up with demand ... ADD MORE CAPACITY!! PS: BA modem is Infospeed and looks like it's DMT probably licensed from Amati as part of the TX deal a few yrs ago. I wanted my DMT and I finally got my DMT! Hope all goes well on Monday when BA is supposed to turn me on! GO WSTL!
