It has been a while since I heard a rundown on who owns who (and who is bigger than who in footprint and $) in the european cable wars.

Can somebody give us a overview?

Especially since some talks seem to be going on:
*************************
Redwood City, California, June 8 (Bloomberg) -- Excite at Home Corp. (ATHM) rose 2 1/8, or 11 percent, to 22 5/16 and traded as high as 22 3/8. The provider of high-speed Internet service over cable lines is in talks to merge with Chello Broadband NV, the Internet Unit of United Pan-Europe Communications NV, the Financial Times reported, citing people familiar with the talks.

kinda OT:

Message 13853540

If you haven't already discovered it, this one sells MMDS(one flavor of wireless broadband) infrastructure stuffs, but also optical networking things (think F in HFC), not to mention their DSL stuffs. Looks to me like they are spreading their broadband infrastructure bet nicely across cable/wireless/dsl, somewhat like AOL's spreading their bet on the consumer product level.

And yes I have a long position there, but feel free to do your own research.
