If you read the document carefully, youŽll figure that they support MPEG2 HDTV
(1920x1080)
and MPEG4 SDTV (640x480/720x576), which was my point earlier. So they are little
less than
two cycles of MooreŽs law away from MPEG4 HDTV. That would put it three years
away but if the market is there, weŽll probably see it earlier. SDTV
video-over-ip services
should take off first though or weŽll end up with peer2peer set top boxes
sharing premium
channel services over broadband networks.
