 PROFILE
Prodigies sometimes fade away after an auspicious youth. Prodigy Communications (formerly Prodigy, Inc.), once the leading US online service, is still around and is making a comeback as an international ISP. It has more than 3.3 million consumer and small-business subscribers in the US and Mexico, including 860,000 who use high-speed digital subscriber line (DSL) service. Prodigy gained 700,000 subscribers by combining with SBC's consumer and small-business Internet access operations in 2000; as part of the deal, the Baby Bell took a 43% stake in Prodigy. Billionaire Carlos Slim Helu owns about 30% of the company through his interests in Mexico-based Carso Global Telecom and Telmex
