When I pressed Alan about how cable would stand out in an all IP world, he mentioned that one of cable's unique points will be the types of services it brings via IP compared to the telcos.
What type of video services do you think cable could use to stand out from the telco IPTV attack?
I think this is where not having your own mobile network might be a liability. If you can't profit from owning each customer connection (or you have to give up those profits to Clearwire or Sprint), where's the motivation to be truly innovative and connect your services to mobile IP devices?
