In race for faster Web access, cable modems outpace phone competition EVEN THOUGH THE GAME has barely begun, analysts and industry executives alike say cable has a big early lead that will be difficult for its phone industry adversaries to overcome. At Home, the cable modem service jointly owned by Tele-Communications Inc. and several other large cable companies, recently said it closed the second quarter with 147,000 subscribers, up from 90,000 at the end of March and 50,000 at the end of 1997. Earlier this week, Motorola announced that it has shipped 170,000 cable modems already this year, and expects to sell around 320,000, total, in 1998. Analysts predicted the total number of cable modem subscribers will reach 425,000 to 500,000 by year's end. more msnbc.com
