<<Do you think their broadband strategy is sound?>>

Sam, in the first place why do you think that AOL should have a sound broadband strategy or for that matter a broadband strategy in the first place. Who says that broadband is the way to go. Is there any technical superiority of broadband over other technologies such as DSL and ADSL? Are you the one trying to set the fad that broadband is the way to go? Broadband has a lot of drawbacks. And besides broadband is not there yet. ATT will have to shell out a heck of a lot of money to build the broadband infrastructure to make it viable. And after all that, broadband may not turn out to be all that good as it is made out to be. So yes indeed AOL is the mother of Core Holdings as AOL is a Internet company that has shown a profit consistently

I don't know for sure. People I trust who know alot more about it feel comfortable. If ADSL were plug 'n Play, Id feel just great. AOL has always had a big outstanding "issue", and it has done just fine. Broadband isn't going to be universal anytime soon, either.
