Maybe great news for the TV front, but not so great for us that HAVE Direcway internet. It is my only broadband option. I still get my TV from Dish, though. My wife just loves that there are 2 dishes on my roof (hehehhe)

I have Direcway as well. I was assuming I wouldn't be using Spaceway (though the concept is amazing) since it is more for business I think.
I guess I'm looking at this news as a more immediate personal benefit in 2004. Unlike some, I want locals broadcast in HD thru Directv so I don't have to deal w/ antennas.
I also want to see a lot more NFL games in HDTV, since once I saw my first last Sunday it is now fairly miserable watching a standard game, especially the side-view gameplay views from up high.
