I like this...HP is getting aggressive in new technology markets once again. It's been a while since we've seen this.

Buying a small "e-services" company, developing products to enter a market growing at 50% a year, and forming alliances with computer and networking giants to lay the foundation for the future of the Internet.

Exciting technologies.

OTOH, I was flipping through the 5/3/99 Information Week and saw an for E-Services that didn't sit right with me. Something about a chip in your car so you know when your daughter is going over 65MPH and you can call her. I just don't like the Big Brother concept and I think it's the wrong approach to market these services.
