To All:

As the result of Phil's post, I have sent an E-mail to Wegener Corporation, one of Sarnoff's principal competitors and a company that also has an SI thread and one of which I am also a stockholder.

I have posted the e-mail, which included the full text of Phil's Sarnoff release, on the Wegener thread at:

Message 6279792

Hopefully Wegener will be another neck that will be grabbed.

Steve

Here's the "UPI CyberBriefs" distillation of the Sarnoff announcement:

Sarnoff, Wave Systems collaborate

SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 4 (UPI) - Wave Systems Corp. and Sarnoff Corp. of Princeton, New Jersey, say they are working together to create metering solutions for the broadcast distribution of digital content.

Wave Systems says Sarnoff's leadership in satellite, High Definition Television (HDTV) and other digital broadcast technologies offer a strong complement to its patented metering architecture. The two companies will focus on the economical delivery of digital content through a variety of broadcast media including satellite, digital TV, cable and xDSL.

The partnership plans to develop products that will benefit OEM vendors, content providers and consumers alike.

The announcement says consumers receive the flexibility of paying for information based on actual usage, while publishers benefit from reduced marketing expenses and the ability to reach a much broader base of end- user target markets. _-
