"With the settop box the end customer can gain access to the internet with the same high speed access as a cable modem." Mkilloran- Neither url you posted indicate any real world rollouts? Don't get me wrong. I believe in the cable plant. But just trying to send a word of caution about hype getting ahead of reality. That's all. There is tremendous hype in TV land. It's a HUGE market with a LOT of players wanting in on it saying whatever it takes to stand out. IMHO, it's going to be a very long time before the MSO wants us to be surfing the Internet at cable modem speeds obscuring the ads they generate revenues off of. -MikeM(From Florida)
