Dinesh,

What if I were able to talk to my VCR ?

Let's take that one step farther. If you could talk to your VCR you'd also be able to talk to your TV.

Using the one-touch tuning as an example, the tuning technology would be the same. The difference would be the activation of the tuning, the difference between voice activation and remote-control activation. If someone else comes out with the voice activation that works every time, I can see Gemstar licensing it and "connecting" it to their pre-existing interactive technologies. My point is that I don't see voice activation being an obstacle for Gemstar.
