WAVX looking good...

IBM's booth featured WAVX products at a industry show this week. WAVX is a company that has a foot on both the tehcnology and content distribution sides of the e-commerce market. It manufactures a chip that acts as a meter of digital content usage, just think of a water meter sitting on your computer, or think of Pitney-Bowes postage meter that "weighs" how much you use. On the distribution side, it allows PC users to "rent" digital content such as art, games and productivity software. It has a sales division called "Great Stuff" where you can download Psygnosis games, HTML writers, Anne Rice fiction, etc. 4-6 million Aptivas with the WAVX chip are ocming out this Fall. Rumor is that OEMs are "stumbling over each other" to sign up with WAVX. The WAVX chip can help reduce cost of PC by giving boxmaker a cut of bundled software sales. THe potential here is incredible. It could also flop, as there are many competing e-commerce ideas and standards. Also, download times are long.

WAVX has a very active thread here on SI. Sit down and lurk awhile...
