Wireless cable, what's left of them, need cheaper boxes............ multichannel.com One of the biggest obstacles slowing down the migration to digital-wireless video is the cost of the set-tops, especially considering the fact that many customers require multiple receivers. Hosea said two- or three-set-top homes could cost operators $1,000, adding that he would be "real happy with set-top boxes at $200." But an executive at General Instrument Corp. predicted that GI's digital-wireless set-top "won't be breaking $200 for a long time." Perhaps more important to wireless operators than hardware costs is fair access to programming. "The number of digital channels means nothing if there's no programming available to the viewer," Reddersen said. "Members of the WCA must make it known to Washington [D.C.] that program access is the No. 1 video-related priority in our industry."
