>Would I give my perspective on WIND's collaboration with HP on JetSend?

It is interesting to relate this news item with the November 1997 Fortune article on 10 Tech ideas. As already indicated, the third item was "the Consumerization of Computing Devices". The 5th item was "HP Goes After Everybody", the theme of which is that HP has the computing skills to intrude successfully in traditional, non-computing businesses like printing and photography. Because of HP's computer expertise, it gets to be the "pusher" rather than the "pushee". Since each of these traditional markets is vast, HP has plenty to feed on to increase both revenues and profits. Neat.

WIND and HP are getting to be a regular twosome. WIND is in some 30 HP divisions and over 100 products, and now we find that the "HP that goes after everybody" does it with WIND, and one thing they are doing together is easy internet connections. That enhances the thing we have been emphasizing so much on this thread, which we (WIND) refer to as EIDs.

If you are getting the feeling that all the pieces are somehow coming to together, and the WIND Tornado logo is forming in the middle of the puzzle, you are correct. All this news should have you on the edge of your seat, waiting with baited breath for a glimpse of the completed picture.
