CABLE MODEM SERVICE
(Coming Soon To A City Near You !!!)
When Time Warner Cable launched their new Cable Modem based
On-line/Internet access service called RoadRunner, Websitement was one of
the first to get connected. What previously took 8 hours a day to tranfer
via a dial-up connection was literally reduced to minutes! RoadRunner is available in the Greater
Akron/Canton Ohio area, home of Websitement Communications Corporation.
"No more coffee breaks while waiting for something to download" says
Steve Fry, President of Time Warner Cables Northeast Ohio division.
Akron was chosen to be the first city in the world to experience this new
lightening quick service due to what Fry calls "one of the finest telecommunications
infrastructures in the country."
Cable modem based technology will allow instantaneous audio and video
transmission over the Internet.
The basic cost for RoadRunner service is between $40 and 60 per
node per month depending
upon your residential or business classification.
Many local schools, universities, zoos and museums will tie information and
curriculum into the RoadRunner system allowing for Interactive Learning Experiences.
The speed at which information will move using cable access will revolutionize
the way in which we use the Internet. When cable access to the Internet is widely
available, it will allow the intensive use of graphics, audio and video. Homepages and Web
Sites now download very slowly when these features are overused.
The commercial aspects of cable service need to be closely monitored. Companies
offering cable access will be making substantial investments in bringing the service to
the public. Once established, some companies will not be able to raise the revenue needed
to survive. Others will most assuredly flourish.
Smaller markets may not enjoy cable service for many years to come as they may
not yield a decent return on investment to the service provider. Some larger cities and
metropolitan areas will be ripe with profitable demand, and will have the opportunity to
connect.
