About WebTV ...................................................

From ZiffDavis:

THE COMING BROADBAND BONANZA
Merrill Lynch estimates that 95% of the U.S. population
will have access to the Internet by 2004. Forrester
Research predicts 25% of all online households will
have high-speed Internet connections by 2002.
Implication: Companies that figure out how to exploit
this new bandwidth will reap fortunes... as long as they
have the funding to hang on long enough.

The PC will remain the main Web access vehicle for
the next few years. But alternatives are emerging,
including handhelds (click for more), smart phones
(click for more) and multiple versions of the WebTV
idea (click for more).
