First of all, let me correct my mistake and the previous post: The broadcasters transmit on a 2.4GHz link and they have 15Mbps only available for the transmission of broadcast quality 1080i HDTV at 30 frames per second. That said, for streaming the latency isn't a big issue but certainly QoS is where the IPTV data stream competes with other services for priority. In a local bidirectional environment, however, the lowest possible latency is of major importance. One of the toughest cases comes up with your 1080i HDTV set, if gaming is supposed to be supported over an RF (802.11n or 60GHz) channel. Taro

I don't like roboball polling but this surprised me. Poll gives Perry small lead on White By Jason Embry \| Monday, April 19, 2010, 10:13 AM Gov. Rick Perry leads Democratic challenger Bill White 48 percent to 44 percent in a new Rasmussen poll released this morning. The gap between the two candidates is only slightly more narrow than a month ago, when Perry led White by six points. The robocall poll of 500 likely voters was conducted Wednesday. Margin of error is plus or minus 4.5 percentage points. While the margin between Perry and White is slim, the poll gives Perry a high job approval rate — 59 percent, with 40 percent disapproving of his performance. Some 21 percent of those polled said they view White very favorably, while 16 percent said they view him very unfavorably. Perry’s very favorable number was 20 percent, with 22 percent viewing him very unfavorably. Rasmussen Reports said in its release, “Both candidates are well-known in the state, but at this point in a campaign, Rasmussen Reports considers the number of people with strong opinions more significant than the total favorable/unfavorable numbers.” White has proven himself to be more than a capable fundraiser. If the numbers stay tight through the summer and the candidates have roughly the same amount of money to spend, the fall campaign could be the first truly competitive governor’s race since 1994.
