Has anyone ever heard of Sun's new product, Jini? I wonder if we will be resident in the different types of set-tops there are talking about?

Broadband Week for February 1, 1999

Sun Lines Up 37 for Jini

“Quote from article”
Jini is distinct from the type of Java-based middleware that the cable industry is developing in conjunction with the OpenCable digital set-top initiative.

Java is meant to allow different types of set-tops to interact with cable-delivered digital-TV services; Jini extends platform independence and interoperability to all networked devices linking with any Jini-enabled service, said Jim Waldo, Sun's chief architect for the new technology.
