Telkom partnered with Microsoft for IPtv

[Khyron]

Hi Guys,

I just saw the keynote speech of Microsoft that they delivered last night at CES. At some stage during the presentation they showed who their partners are in IPtv and I found it very interesting to see Telkom's logo there.

Is this new, or did they already announce it previously?

Enjoy.

That would be great, as it would mean us with XBOX360's will be able to use them for IPTV when MS releases its update for the console. I was hoping that it would be the case.

That is exactly what they did during one of the demos.

Yeah, I was just hoping that Telkom would be going with MS's IPTV solution, which now seems to be the case (great stuff).
