Yet another take, this time from AP:

http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/news/articles.asp?guid={29FAEB6B-34F2-442F-AA37-FC30CCDCF41B}

"Bankruptcy Judge Thomas Carlson said Redwood City-based ExciteAtHome
could reject its existing 
contracts with the cable companies as early as 3 a.m. EST Saturday, when
their contracts expire, 
saying they had become "clearly burdensome" to the company."

Which would put the deadline at Midnight Pacific time.
