As a matter of fact I do. We do not own the player, we are not making the player, we are not selling the player, we are not providing the content, we did not design the look of the player....we did the engineering inside and I assume are using MICROOS inside?
Now, with all those fingers in the cookie jar...what do you think will be the distribution of revenues?
"several dollars on the flash based to "up to" several hundred for the audio/visual platform. Well, I don't see those as mutually exclusive options. What are these Alaska Airlines versions...? flashed based or the audio/vido platform.?? And look at all the competition out there ready to pounce on IFE in all its many forms...this one is supposed to be "special" because of the "1st run content"...like no one has access to "1st run content"???? Please....stretching credulity. And why would our player need special insides to run this content. Doesn't make any sense to me. I would think a DVD int the player could be provided and make this whole process a lot simplier....(but what do I know) and possibly cheaper.
Follow the money.
I can't wait to see if we have managed to pull a rabbit out of the hat...but as I sit in the peanut gallery, somehow I watch for the "trick." Perhaps based on past shows.
ANYONE will let you test....as long as it costs them little to nothing... If AlaskaAir is a test, we could be getting bukus from it. I hope not.
BTW: your royalty fees are a bit whacked.To assume at the end of the day that EDIG gets more (your est of 400) out of this deal than APS (your estimate of 200)...is a little "weakest link"ish......IMO
