Avid to acquire Pinnacle 03/22/2005 05:04 PM

Avid Technology Inc. on Monday announced plans to acquire Pinnacle Systems Inc. in a deal valued at US$462 million in cash and stock transfer. Pinnacle makes video editing products for the Windows platform, with an emphasis on consumer video products. The companies expect to close the deal pending shareholder and regulatory approval in the second or third calendar quarters of 2005. Avid said that its acquisition of Pinnacle will serve as the basis of a new consumer video division at Avid.

Avid Technology, the leading player in video and film editing tools, has revealed it is to buy rival video-editing maker Pinnacle Systems in a deal reported to be worth $462 million. The move is the latest in a series of buy-outs in the video market, as Avid and Apple Computer battle for the professional video high ground.

The purchase by Avid prices Pinnacle at a premium of 30 per cent above its market value, and is based on a stock and cash deal. Under the terms of the agreement, Avid says it will issue 0.0869 shares of Avid and $1 in cash for each Pinnacle share. Avid says it expects to issue around 6.2 million shares – around 15 per cent of its common stock.

The Pinnacle ShowCenter is a $300 set-top box that plays music, video, and photos over a network from your PC. It's too bad it doesn't support AAC and MP4, but at least it supports some form of MPEG-4. I'll be watching AVS Forum for reviews. I've previously mentioned the Roku HD1000 which has similar features, and there's also the Hauppauge MediaMVP for only $100.

Smoke Detector Considered The Pinnacle
Of Innovation
06/03/2004 12:07 PM
The details of how this study was conducted are not entirely clear, but apparently, when asked, folks in the UK consider the smoke detector to be the top innovative gadget, beating out mobile phones, microwave ovens and digital cameras. I keep looking for the punchline about how this study was sponsored by a smoke detector company, but can't find it. It's not that the good old smoke detector isn't a useful gadget - it's just that it seems strange that so many people would pick it as the most innovative. The article quotes people saying that this shows how much the Brits value practicality, but it makes me wonder if the Brits are having trouble filling out surveys properly - or if they just tend to set themselves on fire too often.
