I believe they'd also like the option to sell into the Windows and embedded markets. A Tivo-like device with HD miht need HDCP (not sure about the broadcast, cable, satellite standards). So would a Windows Media Center. It might even make sense as the video output chip in a BlueRay / HD-DVD player itself. I believe that some of the current crop of $40 DVD players use some PC hardware. -- Zan Lynx <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
