San Ramon, CA  - November 7, 2008 - The HomePNA Alliance, a leader in technology for networking IPTV over the existing coax and phone wires in the home, today announced that it will be exhibiting at the TelcoTV 2008 show being held in Anaheim, Calif., at the Anaheim Convention Center, Nov. 11-13.  "I'm looking forward to attending TelcoTV, one of the leading events for telcos looking to deploy triple-play services," said recently elected HomePNA president William Simmelink. "We've made tremendous inroads in North America and, with AT&T U-verse TV close to the 1 million subscriber mark and many other leading telcos installing HomePNA, interest continues to grow rapidly."
