Nhiem, Muepo,; It seems to me that CUBE is distinguishing between different levels of compression by referring to "Broadcast" and "Professional" quality chips. Too bad. I always thought that "I" was a "Professional" in the "Broadcast" industry. Anyway, I think it is the difference between DTV 480p/720p and HDTV 1080i capabilities. There are even higher levels of compression, but the degradation is too great at this stage of the game to seriously consider looking at those levels. Waiting for Godot, GEorge

Innovacom has hired a new Investor relations person based out of Wall Street.His name is Sam Pai(very nice).He was VERY enthusiastic about Innovacoms VERY NEAR term prospects.Mentioned that he believed Stock is WAY undervalued and should be trading in 10+ range.Mentioned that after looking at IBM specs for their single chip encoder,the Innovacom chip is much faster and also more cost efficient. Also mentioned that NAB was a huge success for Innovacvom(read between the lines folks!).Remember big companies walking around with their checkbooks(who knows?) Alex(buying more this week)
