re: Broadcom They don't have decoders (yet?) just front end solutions. Broadcom needs an MPEG A/V decoder, plus OSD and a CPU. Reportedly, Cube's next decoder will have all these built in. That is an awful lot to bite off and as far as I know, Broadcom doesn't have a CPU alliance at this point. I don't really expect such a solution from them for 12 month minimum. Additionally, the qualifications for new decoders take a long time. They would be hard pressed to turn only the decoder technology licensed from GI into deployable silicon this year. Indications are that GI will start deploying these boxes in Q3. Also, the Broadcom PR only discusses the DCT-5000 which is a next year(?) box. broadcom.com
