Hi billy,
Re. your question about ISDN, we are doing R&D work here so when B-ISDN is on
place, we can put compressed video and CD quality audio to the network. We
already have video and audio on fibre around the building.But getting live
video compressed and de-compressed in real time is a problem.
By the way which uni or poly you are attending. I came from uk two years ago.
