SPYG is in major deal MSFT, as reported last month. Now MSFT buys 5 billionworth of ATT stock. ATT will use MSFT inbedded browsers in all their topboxes.
If I am right, then it would be SPYG who would have to provide that technology.
the deals with MSFt, SONY and now LU should make spyg extremely attractive. The implications of the MSFT-ATT deal should be seen soon.

AT&T: The new king of cable
By Louis Trager, ZDNet

Quote:
"Microsoft reportedly is close to making a $5 billion investment in AT&T and securing an AT&T commitment to use its software in advanced TV set-top boxes. Regulators at the Federal Communications Commission and the Department of Justice and in the states will have to decide whether AT&T's calling the cable-industry tune is monopolistic or will benefit competition by providing the sharpest challenge yet to Bell control of home telecommunications"

Who's technology does MSFT use for these embeded browsers???
SPYGLASS????
