Thanks, Steve, for pointing out that no matter how stae-of-the-art we may WANT to be, wanting doesn't always make it so. Where I live we can't even get basic cable (yes many of us out here have a dish) -- last I heard we're projected to get it in another 5 years. Now consider how long the rest of the world has had cable available, and ponder how long it may be before we get hi-speed phone lines!
