Hoi Stijn,
Ik heb jouw tekst gevonden ;-), maar dat betekend niet dat ze met elke bekabelaar moeten gaan praten .. het gaat hier alleen om met welke t1 service gaan samen werken (waar alle data straks van de afzonderlijke explotanten overheen stormen)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
....."We want concrete details of the UK service but Microsoft admit that Europe will be the toughest territory to crack. It's got to negotiate deals with all the major ISP's and that means dealing with a telecom industry split across national borders. Once it's leapt that hurdle it runs smack into the language barrier. How will Brits, Germans, French and the rest play together without a common tongue ? Perhaps the universal language of rocket launcher be enough. Still we've had a nod that an autumn launch is on for Europe. Autumn is a suitably vague term but we'd bet on November being more likely than September. As for the games and prices we'll just have to wait and see. Odds on it'll be same as the Americans minus NFL fever and hopefully with Phantasy Star Online."......

Maar het gerucht blijft nog staan: Het vermoeden blijft dat xbox-live .. hier in december live gaat ;-) Ze beginnen in europa met testen in september (20 augustus US)
Will I be able to play people in other countries?
Yes. The Xbox Live service should be rolled out to Europe by the end of the year, and US and European gamers will be able to compete with eachother. (Source: July issue of OXM)
