Richard.14814(Thu Jun 1 04:48:19 UTC+0200 2006)I am sorry no I cannot they have not given us a release date only a month.
Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:48:35 UTC+0200 2006)And, what about the lunching date? Have any idea?
Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:48:52 UTC+0200 2006)So, it will be in june, in any case?

Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:53:05 UTC+0200 2006)I see
Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:53:25 UTC+0200 2006)So, maybe you don't have any idea of the PPV costs, either?

Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:54:37 UTC+0200 2006)By the way, since when are you acknouledged about The Fight Network comming to the USA thruought Comcast?
Richard.14814(Thu Jun 1 04:54:27 UTC+0200 2006)It all depends on the PPV what the cost is, UFC 60 was $39.95.
Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:55:20 UTC+0200 2006)Are we going to have TFN Channel exclusivelly, or is any other carrier in the USA going to have it available.
Richard.14814(Thu Jun 1 04:55:28 UTC+0200 2006)We have a program that gives us updates of changes that are happening to Comcast.
Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:55:44 UTC+0200 2006)I mean, a friend lives in Miami, Florida, and asked me about this.
Martin(Thu Jun 1 10:55:52 UTC+0200 2006)is Comcast available in Florida?
