Dear ENOTS, Somehow I though you were not there anymore. But that aside, I think the network is up and running in austin, testing the stb, etc., but I have not heard that the vod servers were attached. I might have that wrong, but I think twx is testing one step at a time, with vod expected to be added shortly. My guess is that both seac and ccur have been informed that they are going to be asked to ship servers, but not told exactly when they will receive that request.

Goodboy, Thanks for the info on diva. I will go check it out.

Has anyone heard anything more about the trials that Intertainer is supposedly running? From their website, it appears they are offering something similar to ivod for programming that include movies and more. I found a mention on the sunw website that suggests they are using sunw servers, but I can't confirm that anywhere. Anyone know how they deliver the video streams? Their pricing seems to mirror diva's, although Intertainer intends to give you free commercials with your programs. That's worth waiting for.
