Schrader's position on access to cable company high speed networks is the same old song and dance cable companies have always waged. They're protecting their turf while milking their customer base. They're afraid the internet, over higher speed lines, will deliver movie and other compressed video/entertainment content spoiling their monopoly. Unfortunately they don't realize it will happen with or without them. Whoever opens up first, the telcos or cable, will force the hand of the other. Its a shame the cable companies are so short sighted, they have the opportunity to route commanding ammounts of content through their system, instead they're trying to control a small stream while a river runs by their door. Jim.. CMTO will benefit either way, just a matter of more or less time to make it happen.

The quiet cable play makes some noise The quiet cable play makes some noise By Peter D. Henig Red Herring Online April 14, 1999 If high-speed Internet access over cable is so hot, how come so few investors have heard of Com21 (CMTO)? It's one of the leading global suppliers of modems, head-ends, and other equipment that cable communications operators use to provide broadband access. Com21 went public in May 1998 and has performed well in the aftermarket, although not to the standard of some of the highest flying Internet-related IPOs. Currently trading at $30 per share (it priced at $12), Com21 has played second fiddle to the more aggressively marketed Terayon Communication Systems (TERN), which debuted in August 1998 at $13 per share and now trades in the mid-$50s. But analysts are warming to the market opportunity within Com21 and are quickly, albeit quietly, pumping up the stock. FULL TEXT @: herring.com
