If you have a 100mbps video connection and you can't handle a video conference in parallel with Dexter you may have bigger issues. :)

If you have a 100 mbps broadband connection and your toddlers are slowing down your video conference call with your boss by watching the newest Dexter (hah!). Then your *need* can be easily satisfied by telling your toddlers to cut the crap for a while. Sure it'd be nice if your toddlers could watch Dexter kill another victim whilst you were having a smooth video conference
talk with your boss, but it's not necessary.

I just *have* to say, "me too"...and as Jeroen says, some things work fine just the way they are. I waited 30+ years to be able to see the puck in a Hockey game via OTA Broadcast HDTV, and now Genachowski wants to use that spectrum so I can watch the game on a 3x3 in. screen.<sigh>
