Well, I already threw it out, so I can't verify it, but I know I read an 
article on this, I'm pretty sure in last week's TV Guide.  I don't recall 
the technical details (I doubt any were presented), but someone (JYA?) 
could check last week's TV Guide and maybe even quote the article.

I'm embarrassed to have to admit to actually reading TV Guide*, especially 
to this august group...

discussion topic on cypherpunks.  That doesn't leave much out,
of course.
