we announced two products that are essentially forming in the first layers of the stack for broadband access to the consumer which is basically an end device inside their home which is a Wi-Fi station which has IOT functionality and other things as well built in and at set of technologies that we're going to be rolling out in beta starting the summer for providing direct to consumer broadband access wireless broadband access for anybody that might want it hopefully even it's gonna go national is that right that's the goal it's gonna be a long process to build it out and you know Metro Metro City the city kind of thing but yeah that's sort of the big idea is that it's a competitive alternative to wire broadband what's your expectation that star e is actually going to be able to move the needle in these meet in these big markets with huge incumbent players I think you know we'll have to see it right a lot of that is gonna be how well we execute it's a ton of work so I think whether we make a dent or not at the end of the day is gonna be a function of whether we can deliver the product more effectively one of the things that I think is interesting about your previous company Aereo is that unfortunately it did eventually get shut down after going to the US Supreme Court is it the type of situation with star e because you're going up against so many major incumbents there's a lot of money involved in this market hopefully there's no ticking time bomb in this particular business model right I mean this is something this terrible yeah there's no legal issue right so it's a lot of it is execution in technology I don't think there's a single person inside of the establishment that says there's sufficient competition
