Terry, Thanks for the posts. Note that Zenith followed my suggestion to keep Divx away from its suite. Zenith needs to focus on the main show, HDTV. Also, too much controversy about Divx at this early time.

If I was Sharp, I'd kill the Divx name. Call it simply: DVD+. The DVD crowd is as vocal and committed as any "terorist" group on this planet. I've been conducting a running battle with them on the anti-Divx BB for awhile and have been called about every name in the book. They swear I'm a CC plant.

The C-Cube chips certainly will be used for the LGE/ZE "DVD+" as well as the normal DVD player.

Also noticed one release that Zenith will be selling "DVD+" in March.

Terry, Sorry for you that we kicked your team's butt right back to the Windy City tonite. Best night here in many a Miami moon. Off to Vegas tomorrow to kick more butt....
