I don't know about the chips, but I think the reason DIVI got in with the telco's is because of the whole systems expertise that they can provide. Most of the rollouts with the telcos seem to be wireless, but maybe they have a chance at ADSL(if it ever really gets moving)too. Gives us something to watch for.
