You're reading it here first. DStv's great competition, On Digital Media (ODM) is pushing back it's starting date. Again.
This will be the THIRD time that ODM is re-stating it's starting date.
1.Initially ODM was supposed to be up and running by the beginning of 2009.
2.ODM restated and said it will start broadcasts by mid-2009 (meaning July/August).
3.ODM restated again and said it will start broadcasting ''in the 4th quarter'', later clarifying this same timeframe as putting it later rather than earlier in the 4th quarter.
4.I've just FINALLY tracked someone down at ODM, telling me the satellite operator is now looking at the first quarter of 2010.
Subscribers will need a separate set top box/decoder and satellite dish. The company that just moved into a new building is also currently recruiting personnel.
