Re: Cables boxes and such

said by fizzle0:

People that don't want to pay any rental fees for equipment in order to watch two way digital cable will have to wait a year or two. Cable Labs is currently working on a new standard called DCAS. This will allow customers to purchase a box or a new TV and the customer will connect and authorize their new equipment to connect to their cable service.
That's good news if it gets implemented across the board, i.e. if the cable industry figures out how they can make more money with it than without it.

Otherwise ... Carterfone started the ball rolling toward everything we take for granted with POTS interconnection today. How about a little Carterfone for our coaxial buddies?
