What do you think the significance is of the Sony alliance? I think it is just one of those long-term deals that will help the bottom line, but you will not see any money (income) for a couple of years OR is SONY one of those quick time to market companies?

He is saying "ennervate" with an adenoidal Washington state accent.

Ooo, that could be it, Q. Here's the WWWebster result.

Entry Word:enervate

Function: verb

Text: Synonyms UNNERVE, castrate, emasculate, unman, unstring

Related Word debilitate, devitalize, disable; exhaust, fatigue, jade, tire, weary

Contrasted Words activate, energize, vitalize; galvanize, quicken, stimulate

In any case, if he's really saying "innovate" (is that possible??), I for one, have been 'innovated' by Microsoft once too often.
