> Potentially interesting, but we don't have Intercast here anyway (does > anywhere outside the US?) I don't have any connection with them, other than that they work in the same campus, and I suspect this was a hypothetical question, but since I know it's being worked on, I thought I'd toss a quick response out... >From the Intercast FAQ at http://www.intercast.org/info/info08.htm : Q5. Will the Intercast medium be available outside of the USA? What are the plans for implementing Intercast technology on the PAL broadcast standard? Initially, <A HREF="http://www.intel.com/iaweb/intercast/index.htm">; Intel Intercast technology</A> will be developed and deployed in the United States and is based on the NTSC broadcast standard. PAL is expected to be supported by the end of 1997. Differing TV standards and government regulations in various countries will have to be addressed before the Intercast medium can be broadly deployed outside of the US. Intel is investigating the internationalization of the Intercast technology. -- Alan Batie ------ What goes up, must come down. batie@aahz.jf.intel.com \ / Ask any system administrator. +1 503-264-8844 (voice) \ / --unknown D0 D2 39 0E 02 34 D6 B4 \/ 5A 41 21 8F 23 5F 08 9D
