ST, HAPI to provide a link to a recent Forbes story on HAVI and HAPI:
so we have at least 3 competing systems. That's OK, as long as they drive chip demand.

>ON THE SURFACE Havi (Home
Audio/Video Interoperability) is
a geeky set of obscure technical
standards. In reality it's a major
offensive by Sony, Matsushita
and half a dozen other
consumer-electronics giants to shape the future of
your living room.

On the defensive: Microsoft. It has a rival plan to
take control of your TV set by pushing Windows
CE and a Havi-incompatible alternative known as
Hapi. (Home Application Programming Interface.
Cute.)
