Interactivity is seen as the most important feature of a digital box, not just more channels. But to tell you the truth, there are not that many interactive applications ready. The most interesting applications are still under development and will be available more in the fall. This will be implemented in the summer with full bi-direction. We already offer long distance telephony.
Digital video is only part of the equation.
We're using pretty much S-A equipment for the headend, but it's mostly the older generation. The next generation that we'll be interested in is the OpenCable set-top and we're very keen to see that happen.
