>>I asked the company about this 3 years
age and they said it was for some things coming up in the near future.<<

Well, the future is here now, and it's only the beginning. Today's announcement certainly blows away T and MediaOne deal. Maybe I am biased, but it seems to me the Street likes this deal better than T deal. I suspect today's 2 upgrades are not coincidence.

I am still searching for old news. Yahoo only keeps about 4 news releases at a time. I wonder if anyone can verify that, according to AOL's plan, the set-top box will help with both dial-up and DSL services.

And Vendit sez,
AOL INSTANT WORLD WIDE high speed data transmission access.

Cut, print, that's a wrap folks. We have a winner.

Vendit,

Print that statement and frame it. Better than any news release I've ever seen.

What is DSS? How different from DSL. Is it satellite? How will this leap over T?
thanks

Vendit,

Just read the AOL announcement.. Wow- this is playing out very well with AOL partering (rather than owning) for unique channel delivery of bundled services- he he

Here's more on satellite players (before AOL deal .. looks like Hughes found their answer for poor customer care)- win win

zdnet.com

btw- quick TA looks great for AOL & DELL (& we'll see about my T short <g>)

Thanks,

Orlando
