Re: DVB scripts

[Jeffrey Borg <jeffrey@borgs.net>]

Hi there

EON = Euroupe on line? that is a sat service covering euroupe (as far as I
know)


None of you wouldn't happen to know if a service covered Australia that
was 
A) useable with linux mainly

Telstra's service say it's much like the DirectPC service in the us in
that the protocols are the same basically is that compatable with this dvb
data stuff or are the many different standards for this

And is there a providor that Services Australia that does use the dvb data
standard?
