IPTV revolution not on hold (Score 1)

It always makes me laugh when I see the mainstream business press get excited because one big named company latches onto a technology concept that has been been deployed and is being deployed around the world successfully. IPTV. If they took the time look, they would see that IPTV is rolling out EVERYWHERE in the world- Saskatel in Canada, Ringold Telephone in GA, British Telecom, France Telecom, Chunghwa in Taiwan, Magnet in Ireland, IVisjon in Norway and Fast Web in Italy have been rolling out IPTV to THOUSANDS of subscribers for years. In fact the first IPTV deploymetn ws in the UK with Kingston Communications in 2000 - so just becasue SBC is having trouble and Microsoft can't seem to make it work, doesn't mean that IPTV isn't working. And the reporters at Business Week and other mainstream business pubs cant do a little research to see the number of subsribers, content and general well being of IPTV around the world, then why do people even read them. I agree the US has problems with content, but that doesn't mean IPTV is dead.
