With the accelerated expansion of the broadband infrastructure, Deutsche Telekom intends to dramatically increase the marketing basis for its T-Com's Triple Play products and the opportunity to use IPTV. (See DT Outlines Strategy, Eyes 1.5 Mln IPTV Subscribers by 2010) DT aims to cover more than 17 million households by the end of 2007. Deutsche Telekom is consequently tripling the marketing potential for Triple Play products and accelerating growth in the area of high-speed Internet access. As the next step in the expansion of VDSL technology, Deutsche Telekom will provide its customers in the following cities with the new high-speed technology: Bochum, Bonn, Bremen, Darmstadt, Dortmund, Dresden, Duisburg, Essen, Karlsruhe, Ludwigshafen, Mainz, Mannheim, Wiesbaden and Wuppertal.

Additionally, T-Com has gained Disney subsidiary Buena Vista International Television as another important partner for its video-on-demand service.
