Reflections from the SFA CC:
SFA is doing very well. There does not seem to be any let
down in STB demand even if MOT and others are making noise.
International was strong especially to South America

From a VOD view. They mentioned that 4 VOD vendors have
been picked without saying the names. We know of CCUR, Diva,
and SEAC but the fourth I assume is nCube. I was not aware
that nCube actually had deal that used SFA STB's unless it
was NTL in the UK.
Hawaii and Tampa were mentioned often.
They expect 40 VOD announcements in what I think I heard as
6 months.

The very last question of the CC was interesting.
It appears that SFA is encouraging the MSO's to role app's
faster instead of single threading the release.
And they have advised them to role an app within a short
timeframe after going live on the STB's in order to get
the ROI.
The big winner of the CC(other than SFA) appears to be Wink.
