Microsoft recently announced some details behind its TVPAK offering.
I'm hoping for an announcement that ties in with Microsoft's TVPAK offering.

asia.yahoo.com

"The client software, known as Microsoft TV, is billed as operating a range of television-centric appliances from Internet terminals and advanced set-top boxes (STBs) to integrate televisions."

The offering is a "TV operating system that is based loosely on Windows CE." Well, we know (based off of today's Dow Jones announcement) that Sigma's STB is Windows CE based...not only "supporting the Windows 98 operating system" as was previously announced.

"Companies that have announced their support for the technology include AT&T on the network operator's front, and Scientific-Atlanta, Pace, Philips, Siemens, Hitachi and Sony. Many of these firms supported WebTV when it first appeared, and are now supporting Microsoft TV and its TVPAK technology."
