HOT Telecom - update!!

The Israeli web site Walla! reports today that the Israeli cable
television company HOT will launch it's land line telephony service on
Monday next week during the opening of the Telecom 2004 event.
HOT is also expected to launch it's VOD (Video On Demand) service on
the same occasion.
These two announcments are expected to cause a major shock in the local
land line communications market and create quite a stir in the
television market.
It is expected that HOT will offer a deal where the customer purchases
a modem for the telephony service and for a monthly fee of approximatly
70 NIS they will have unlimited land line to land line service at no
charge.
HOT Telecom's new area code is 07 (077) and for the up coming time
there will be NO inter-connect fee's between Bezeq and HOT (dialing HOT
will be exactly like dialing Bezeq as far as pricing matters).

issues.
