You will select, order and control the delivery of video information and programming into your home. Services you want, when you want them. Politicians and government officials will be more equipped to keep in touch with, and provide services to, their constituents. And governments services will be more accessible to citizens by breaking down the barriers of time, language and finance that often stand between government leaders and the people they serve, particularly those making a transition into the community. Telemedicine allows doctors to share and transmit radiology images and medical records, monitor vital signs at home via an interactive link to the hospital, link medically underserved areas with experts at major hospitals, pick your doctor or learn first aid from home.
Parents can get more involved in their children's education.
And students will have a world of information at their fingertips. These services will affect our lives in ways we can't imagine today and new services will be developed as this network continues to evolve. Thank you for this opportunity to speak and to show you our vision.
