Re: The numbers just don't add up.
I wouldn't be surprised if Bell does have plans to combine Expressvu and VDSL together. Have Expressvu deliver the standard fare (including HDTV) and VDSL to deliver on-demand services plus other local and interactive content. The satellite receiver already plugs into the phone line, what's stopping it from being a VDSL line? |

Fergus, ON | The phone lines plugs into a dial up modem (in the receiver) DSL modems are a completely different animal.. So to answer your question "what's stopping it from being a VDSL line": The lack of a DSL modem or a Ethernet Adaptor for that matter. |

That's what the VDSL service is: ExpressVu, Wireline and Sympatico all through one box (no sat dish required).
About 150 MDU's have it already, so no dish has to be installed. And 30 single home's are on the trial now also. |
