Stew. I thought that this was a significant question that you might have thought of B4. Do you think it is insignificant?

JohnG,

Does GMST have the IP so sewed up that if my Internet site returns a data set=(channel,
time, date) to my merged TV/computer appliance, the builders of this appliance cannot
use that data set to tune the TV to that channel/time/date without violating GMSTR
patents. Note, I am hypothasising that the TV as we know it ceases to exist. It becomes a
PC with a TV feature. Does the Stephens report answer this. I an also assuming that set
top boxes cease to exist---just why are they needed?

May I suggest that you look up and research the Gemstar patents. It is better than asking
questions and relying on someone else's answer. Personally, I believe no one. I spend
hours looking for a single answer. Sometimes days.

Regards
Stew
