<< agree with you that AOL will eventually need to switch over to a faster technology,
and their endorsement of this technology (LMDS, HFC, satellite, whatever) will be a
bellweather. Unfortunately, they may not do this until this new technology is ubiquitous,
like telephone lines, and this may not be for some time since, with the exception of a few
markets, they and other ISPs with their 56k modems have absolutely no competition.>>

Did you not see AOLs announcement last week that it was going to offer DSL thru GTE (Orckit Comm. I believe).
