I posted this on the Fool, I wanted to see what anyone here thought about all these press releases that seemed to explode out of LOR today. ============= Subject: C* Partners Date: Mon, Apr 6, 1998 18:18 EDT From: Fozziebare Message-id: <1998040622182401.SAA04317@ladder01.news.aol.com> With all the talks of "@Home in the Sky" going on between TCI and LOR for Cyberstar, would it begin to make sense that TCI may be the long awaited Internet partner? We now have a hardware/software provider (HP and Verifone), a networker (Adaptec), a billing solution provider (Irdeto) and a company with a large affinity group (TCI and @Home). A large affinity group was a key aspect to Readware's criteria for a Internet Partner for C, as well as several hundred million dollars, $200 million if memory serves, which TCI has. Just some more speculation, but could a TCI partnership be the partner? With the forementioned companies as partners for C, it would seem that LOR has arranged a quite strong alliance of players, strong enough to bring a broadband service like C* to life. Every piece of the puzzle is there, from the sats, to the routers, to the servers, to the billing system, to the OS, all the way down to the group of people to target the C* machines to! I love it when a business plan comes together! Anyone else got an opinion? geoff ===========
