I think this is part of why Microsoft has been so strategically omitted from STB news.:
IBM introduced two STB models, one for digital broadcast satellite (DBS)
and the other for digital cable systems. Both models use DAVID (Digital
Audio/Video Interactive Decoder) technology, which is a specialized
version of Microware's OS-9 Real Time Operating System for digital
television applications. The STB includes an electronic program guide
feature with Java Applet/XML and services linked with various types of
content. It can also provide many other kinds of interactive services
such as home banking and shopping. Implementation of a Java Virtual
Machine (JVM) is planned for the future.
