From Marks Monday memo... . - Motorola's "Blackbird," introduced Monday at IBC, will play DVDs. It will also play videogames, act as a network computer, offer high-speed Internet access via cable or satellite (or even telephone), act as a telephone, serve as a cable/satellite set-top box, and offer videoconferencing. A professional version is to be available next year, followed by a consumer version at $300 to $500 in 2000. It uses a PowerPC processor and a VM Labs "Project X" chip. One thing it isn't: HDTV-ready.
