Since none of encoder startups have announced that they won the Sigma box, and Sigma generally won't work with Cube, I would guess Sony. But it's just a guess. If you find out more please post here.

Carnac, what does your Crystal ball say?

"There's also a suspicion among Sigma Designs supporters like me that Sigma is in the new all-in-one chip announced by IBM (ibm: news, msgs) that'll be introduced at NAB," Hargraves said.

Another Sigma investor, Glenn Holbert, said Oracle Chairman Lawrence Ellison would demonstrate a Sigma product this week in Las Vegas. Holbert also said the use of set-top boxes --which allow personal computers and television sets to share functions -- "will be the buzzwords over the coming months, and Sigma has positioned itself well in the center of this convergence." Sigma shares early Monday rose 3/8 to 7 1/2.
