The name Chelsea I implies there will be a Chelsea II. My first thoughts are it could be specifically for recordable DVD drives, or for laptops. Does anyone have any insight?

This sounds like it would make a great baseball card. I assume they need encoders and/or decoders to make this.

Las Vegas-based Quantum Media Group will market a new line of motion video cards produced by Kodak's dynamic imaging technology.
ÿÿÿÿÿ When held at different angles, the cards show three to four seconds of full motion video.

TCI picks At Home for digital set-top software
Reuters Story - February 23, 1998 21:12

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 23 (Reuters) - Cable giant
Tele-Communications Inc. said Monday it had selected the At
Home Network to develop software and support for TCI's
next-generation digital television set-top boxes.
Financial terms were not disclosed for the deal, which is
expected to cover up to 11 million next-generation devices.
"Cable television enhanced with digital video services will
become the centerpiece for delivering interactive
entertainment, communication and commerce to the home," TCI
Chairman John Malone said in a statement. "At Home will be a
key partner as we create new products and features for our
cable television customers."
At Home Corp., which provides a high-speed cable
modem-based Internet access service, will provide connection
services for TCI customers' electronic mail. At Home will also
manage the systems that run TCI e-mail services on those
devices.
TCI also selected At Home as its primary contractor for
integrating the software for digital video, Internet access,
e-mail and other services in the advanced set-top devices.
TCI of Englewood, Colo., owns a majority stake in Redwood
City, Calif.-based At Home.
A spokesman for At Home said the deal was important for the
company because it represents a move for the company in
developing products with more interactivity.
At Home stock rose $4.81 to $33.94 on Nasdaq. TCI fell
46.875 cents to $29.03125, also on Nasdaq.
TCI has said it will introduce its next-generation digital
set-top devices by the end of the year or early 1999.
TCI is also working with Microsoft Corp., Sun Microsystems
Inc. and other companies, which are providing operating systems
for the 11 million advanced set-top devices TCI is developing.
