KCJ, I agree with you - I was just responding to froy.
Direct TV does do business in Australia - and the capability is there to stream TV via broadband. But you are right, they do not offer the Specific Direct tv product of television there. At least it looks that way to me.
Actually –Direct TV Group, INC Companies -IS in Australia!~!!
Go to this website: http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/index.dsp
Click on “Direct TV Group, INC Companies” (It is right below the Direct TV Logo.)
That link will lead you to this:
“The DIRECTV Group, Inc. is a world-leading provider of digital television entertainment, broadband satellite networks and services, and global video and data broadcasting. Use the links below to find out more about our companies.”
You will then see a list of 3 companies (all of which are a part of the Direct TV Group, Inc. Companies.)
Then Click on HUGHES Network Systems
Next, click on “Directway for other regions”
You will then see a map of the world. Click on Australia!!
You will now see a page titled “ASIA / Pacific>>”
Now click on ASIA / PACIFIC “Service Providers”
Scroll all the way to the Bottom of the page and you will see this:

It seems to me that they mostly do broadband – but I know for a fact that they can stream video to customers (movies and such)
I really didn’t check it out too closely – but it does prove that Direct TV IS in Australia!!!!
Have a good Day!
Yes, agreed - lots of rumors and little solid info - but I'll tell you one thing. What we have done so far this year could only happen with Huge money behind us. And it aint comming from selling shares.
24Gordon - This is a company of DirectTV:

That is a sweet link.
OK, OT Silly Stuff:
Therapist:
Frank, this is a safe place. A place where we can feel free sharing our feelings. Think of my office as a nest in a tree of trust and understanding. We can say anything here.
Frank:
Anything? Well, uh I guess I, deep down, am feeling a little confused. I mean, suddenly, you get married, and you're supposed to be this entirely different guy. I don't feel different. I mean, take yesterday for example. We were out at the Olive Garden for dinner, which was lovely. And uh, I happen to look over at a certain point during the meal and see a waitress taking an order, and I found myself wondering what color her underpants might be. Her panties. Uh, odds are they are probably basic white, cotton, underpants. But I sort of think well maybe they're silk panties, maybe it's a thong. Maybe it's something really cool that I don't even know about. You know, and uh, and I started feeling... what? what I thought we were in the trust tree in the nest, were we not?
If those were actually sells, PPS would be at 0.0024-0.0025 right now.
Ohh, I really like the way Richard worded that. "I can tell you ....."
What can't you tell us Richard?
Could have been our "Q up to a penny" investors - just sucking up a chunk for the week as well.
Duke me tooooooooo! ,.....................................neilebb@aol.com
My wife is Italian. I don't have a prayer. Also- My cats - I'll chat with you about them later- They are irreplaceable
Fire, I want a copy of that PM'ed website.
LOL, funny, very funny
Have you beed imbibing this evening? I have.
Fire, what post are you referring to? LOL BBWWWWWAAAAHHHHHAAAHHHAAAA!!!!!!!
I agree - I wouldnt actually be suprised if we were there. If fact - I would be suprised if we were not there.
IS ONLY AN AD FOR THE CHICAGO GAY GAMES!!!!!!!
Not I, I have been here a while - and I love the progress - it is truly amazing.
Yeah Lolitchka, I dont care either. I have most all of my eggs in the Q basket. What will be, Will be!!
I remember the day I first found QBID. It was at 0.0001 - and I thought - that is a damn good idea. I'd like to see at least a good PR before I buy in!
And looking at it a year and a half later? Holy SH(T!!!
We have come so damn far in so little time.
I get excited just thinking about it.
People say FO doesnt know what he is doing. WRONG.
He may just be the best in his field/
Poor bashers.
Nite fire;
Fire, I love the part in the last photo where it says:
17 National Stations/33 Million Hispanics
0 National Stations/ 35 Million Gays and Lesbians
Man, they made their point. Didn't they. I'm sure excited!!!
GO Q!!!!!
