Microsoft, Macrovision align on copy
protection
Microsoft, Macrovision align on copy
protection
02/01/2005 09:57 PMMicrosoft and copy-protection company Macrovision have struck a deal
that will add a new layer of anticopying defenses to video content
being swapped between home devices.
The two companies said that Microsoft had licensed Macrovision's
technology, which aims to stop people from making copies using analog
connections between devices, such as those that typically link a
set-top box to a television.
The deal could make it harder for consumers to make permanent copies
of TV shows and movies without permission, if they use computers
running the Windows operating system. It should also help convince
movie studios and other content producers to release their products in
new ways online, the companies said.
"We think that long term, the studios will offer more interesting
products over the Internet using this technology," said Brad Brunell,
Microsoft's general manager of intellectual-property licensing.

07/05/2004 08:10 AM
God bless Roland Valliere
for disproving what I'd worked so hard to establish: that not everyone
from Kansas City is a raving idiot. Valliere's Concert Companion, a
Palm-based PDA that can be rented to orchestragoers that displays
topical information about the ongoing performance (and that we've
mentioned before) is now being widely tested by a variety of
organizations, included our own New York Philharmonic. Although it's
not an entirely un-bumpy ride -- The Times' reviewer had his
unit lock up three times, although they don't mention if it had gotten
wet when they hosed out his cage -- the Concert Companion is a great
idea, and I'm glad to see it getting the chance it deserves.

Apparently, this is a leaked pic of the successor to the Sony Ericsson
P900 (the phone I plan on getting as soon as my first bank-statement
appears and I use it to authenticate myself to the dumbass phone
company that thinks bank-statements are better ID than Canadian
passports). Call it the P901, or the P1000, whatever: it's got a wee
keyboard on the flip-down for those who prefer thumbing out their
executive haiku to scratching at a recalcitrant
handwriting-recognition system. It looks like it might be a photoshop
job, but Rojas at Engadget says that MobileBurn, the source, is
reliable, and I'll take his word for it.

For now, you can file the 'Blackberry Thumb' issue
along side the folder where you would have kept your worries about
cellphone radiation, had you not forgotten them since that tumor
pressed too firmly into your hippocampus. Sure, dinking around on
thumbboards probably isn't exactly the optimal use of your opposable
digits, but it's likely no worse than the dreaded "Nintendo Thumb"
that struck down a whole generation of good typists, who now are
cursed with occasional involuntary run-ons of 'ABABSELECTSTART.' Until
this doctor in the UK can actually point to a documented case of
someone suffering from tendentious, I think I'll keep promoting the
thumbboard as one of the best mobile input devices we have
ABABSELECTSTART available. (Thanks, Aaron!)

Replacing The Mouse With Thumb Control
Replacing The Mouse With Thumb Control
04/20/2004 02:00 PM
MIT's Tech Review has a short article about a
new type of mouse replacement that sounds like a fairly
intelligent input device that takes out much of the carpal tunnel risk
by recognizing that simple thumb movements can easily designate where
you want the cursor to move. So, the device is basically a
one-handed, baseless joystick with a flat top where simple thumb
movement designate where to move on the screen without much exertion
or muscle strain. The side of the device contains typical mouse
buttons. Combined with the
Twiddler
one-handed keyboard, and you could have quite the ergonomic solution
to computer input, while also allowing for mobility with wearable type
computers. Of course, as with any such devices, if the learning curve
seems to be too much, it will never catch on. That may be the case
with the one-handed keyboard, but the mouse replacement might not be
such a big stretch.

Belkin Goes MIMO
Belkin Goes MIMO
08/09/2004 12:49 AMBelkin will use Airgo's MIMO technology for consumer products,
News.com reports: The multiple-in, multiple-out technology that Airgo
is bringing to market has other manufacturers signed on, but Belkin is
the first well-known, mass-market brand name planning--reportedly--to
sell Airgo-based equipment. The gateway will be $179 and the client
card $129; they will be available in mid-October. Airgo's equipment
supports 802.11g, and its own faster, further proprietary technology.
Airgo claims a fourfold increase in throughput and range: they told me
months ago that their 108 Mbps proprietary flavor has a throughput
that's much, much higher than competing proprietary extensions. The
proof is in the performance. Airgo justifies the higher price their
added value brings at this stage in Wi-Fi's development by the greater
coverage area. However, you need new client cards to take full
advantage, which offsets some of the cost savings of more coverage
area....
Belkin TuneStage
Belkin TuneStage
12/19/2004 03:01 PMWhat if you put a snake in a bong? You would get so high. You might
even think that designing a Bluetooth audio bridge for the iPod, like
the upcoming (and mysteriously not-pictured) Belkin TuneStage, is a
good idea. And maybe you'd be right—it'd be like an AirPort
Express with iTunes, except all your songs would be on the iPod, and
you wouldn't have to go back to your computer every time you wanted to
change a song (assuming you don't use a remote or something).
iPodlounge has gotten word that Belkin has done this very thing and
will be unveiling it soonish (before CES, at least). They might even
throw an optical TOSlink out on the receiver to compliment the RCA and
minijack connections it already has. I say live it up, hippies.
