If I can butt in here, cable in/DTV offers up to 10
Mbps bandwidth upstream & downstream (can any
trialistas confirm?) whereas terrestrial/satellite
in/DTV currently offers piddling access via a dial-up
modem.

Longer term, cable has a stronger chance* unless the
Skys and OnDigitals of this world are offering
low-cost broadband access i.e. ADSL...

Saj

*With the caveat that the sector needs to consolidate
i.e. NTL need to snap up Telewest's cable interests...
