Ratan: Thanks for the information on ADSL modem and service. Do you think: Since copper wire is ubiquitous, over the course of time, ADSL will catch on esp if the price of ADSL service is right? Or it is possible that both - copper wire and cable can coexist. With copper wire, are they not looking into transmitting TV signals? If so, on copper wire you could have: telephone, internet, TV.

PMs of India and Pakistan meet in New York. Ratan: In case you haven't seen it,most likely nothing will come out of it. India, Pakistan prime ministers open talks UNITED NATIONS, Sept 23 (Reuters) - The prime ministers of India and Pakistan met on Wednesday amid hints that they might take a first step to rein in a nuclear arms race in South Asia by agreeing in principle to sign the nuclear test ban treaty. Atal Behari Vajpayee of India and Nawaz Sharif of Pakistan shook hands cordially before beginning luncheon talks at a New York hotel. Officials said the meeting would focus on restraining nuclear competition between the two arch-rivals, who stirred world alarm with tit-for-tat atomic tests in May, and reviving peace talks on Kashmir. Vajpayee told reporters on his plane that India had already accepted key aspects of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) by declaring its intention not to conduct any more nuclear explosions ''but there are questions which are unresolved.'' Sharif, who was to address the U.N. General Assembly later on Wednesday, told President Bill Clinton on Monday that Pakistan had no objection in principle to signing the treaty but wanted the United States to waive economic sanctions first. Western diplomats said there were cautious hopes that the two states, keen to escape U.S. trade and credit restrictions, would declare their willingness to sign the CTBT. Vajpayee also said on his flight that India and Pakistan had agreed on modalities for resuming their stalled dialogue and would instruct officials to open talks on all issues, including peace, security and the disputed territory of Kashmir. biz.yahoo.com
