The conclusion is
[5] Our holding in Mesa Verde, along with that of the
Supreme Court in Neal, requires our adherence to the
interpretation of the Communications Act we announced
in Portland. There, we concluded that cable broadband
service was not a cable service but instead was part
telecommunications service and part information
service. Because the Commissions Declaratory Ruling
agreed with our conclusion that cable broadband
service is not cable service, but disagreed
with our conclusion that it is in part
telecommunications service, we must
[6] AFFIRM in part, VACATE in part, and REMAND for
further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.14
