Comcast paid Excite $160million to maintain operations so that Comcast can establish other options. Officially, Comcast needed three month to complete the installation of their network - bull. In reality, it is silly for Comcast to not be its own ISP. Maybe Excite gave them a rediculously low bid that Comcast could not ignore. However Comcast now has three months to either setup their own ISP connections to backbone providers or get someone else to host as ISP.
This was the last press release. The commercials on TV are saying the service will be available in January.
