Slightly off topic - Sky Picnic to be broadband and telephony?

[Ray]

From Marketing week:

BSkyB is considering reviving it's freeview service - Picnic - as a broadband and telephone service following Ofcom’s delay in delivering a verdict on the service.

Catherine Turner: “Sky has contacted consumers that expressed an interest in the TV offer about the new deal, hinting it hopes to push ahead with the TV service later."

Sky: We are considering a range of options,"

But sources close to the broadcaster say it is conceivable that a dual-play service will be launched in the autumn. Sky is also thought to be looking at providing Picnic as an IPTV service, to TV sets through broadband lines.
