Re: Comcast & TW will have significant power on BD of Directors

Very interesting article.

I'd also point out that if Comcast and Time Warner can offer broadband service over Clearwire, that also means they can offer VoIP, which neatly solves the problem of not being able to deliver cell phone service, and also explains the demise of Pivot.

The difference with Cox, of course, is that they don't have investors to answer to for their choices, so if they want to spend money on building out their own network, they're free to do so.

That may not be a good long term choice for them though...building out a nationwide network will be seriously expensive. I'm sure in the short term, you won't much coverage outside of Cox's footprint, while the Clearwire consortium can probably build out across the country much faster.
