I asked kevin surace that question >Many companies are announcing new products,technologies,developments >such as lucent,motorola,at&t,ibm etc >Is general magic ahead in the game or will it be overtaken by the big >boys? I have yet to see any major competitor offering any services as extensible and complete as GMI. We have already announced the largest private label deals in the industry, and I can assure you, any partner has already evaluated the "playing field" prior to an announcement. Recently, many companies have formed a forum (the VXML Forum) of which we are also a member. This is to propose an HTML-like tag standard for websites that which to have their content more easily accessible by voice browsers. I don't believe that these companies today offer any commercial service similar to Portico.
