Hello, in your post in respond to this sentence: <<C-Cube has manufacturing powerhouses like Samsung, Hyundai, Aiwa, Panasonic, Sony, etc.>> You said: >>Not anymore.
Do you have specifics on that? What's you comment on the following for this news piece: ==================================== (http://www.news.com/News/Item/0,4,8232,00.html) Consumer electronic companies such as Samsung and Aiwa have already adopted C-Cube's ZiVA chips for the development of DVD products that deliver home-theater audio and video playback.
In addition, Toshiba will also support C-Cube. The ZiVA chips, coupled with Toshiba's DVD ROMs, comprise a playback solution for DVD-ROM based PCs, according to Ken Jones, director of the DVD business unit at Toshiba's disk products division in a written statement.
Toshiba will also cooperate with C-Cube in driving the DVD players into the reach of the mass consumer market at lower price levels, the company said.
The ZiVA-DS and ZiVA-D6 are in sampling now; the company plans to be in production later this quarter. ===============
I am drawn to this thread because was just reading Smart Money's article.
