     This amendment to Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends and restates in its
entirety the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by SPEEDUS.COM, INC. (the
"Company") on July 14, 2000.

Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     On June 30, 2000, SPEEDUS.COM, INC. acquired all membership interests in
SPEEDIA, LLC ("SPEEDIA.COM") held by TIS Worldwide, Inc. ("TIS") and Daniel
Doyon ("Doyon") and as a result now owns 100% of SPEEDIA.COM (the
"Acquisition"). SPEEDIA.COM currently supplies wireless web and unified
messaging mobile device services globally. Prior to the Acquisition, the Company
owned 45% of the outstanding membership interests in SPEEDIA.COM.

     The Acquisition was consummated pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement,
dated as of June 30, 2000, among the Company, TIS and Doyon, a copy of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein. Pursuant
to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company issued an aggregate of 950,000
shares of its Common Stock to TIS and Doyon in exchange for their membership
interests in SPEEDIA.COM. The Company has agreed to register for resale 200,000
of such shares within 120 days. Of the remaining 750,000 shares, approximately
one third may be transferred subject only to securities law restrictions,
another one third are subject to a two-year transfer restriction, and the last
one third are subject to a three-year transfer restriction. The Company has also
agreed to issue in the aggregate an additional 183,334 shares of its Common
Stock to TIS and Doyon in the event that 90% of Visionstar, Inc., a corporation
wholly owned by Shant S. Hovnanian, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
the Company, is not effectively contributed to the Company within 12 months. An
aggregate of an additional 183,334 shares will be issued to TIS and Doyon if the
SPEEDUS.COM share price does not reach $10 per share within twelve months. All
such additional shares will be subject to the same proportional registration
rights and transfer restrictions as the 950,000 shares initially issued. The
Company issued a press release on July 5, 2000 announcing the Acquisition; a
copy of such press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated
by reference herein.

     The foregoing summary of the transactions contemplated by the Share
Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its
entirety by all of the terms and provisions of such agreement.

Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

     (a)-(b)   Not required pursuant to Rules 3-05(b) and Rule 11-01 of
               Regulation S-X.
