Quite a lot of stuff from PP

This part I said last week when the Scanbuy/Dupont news came out:

"Because Dupont is probably the largest consumer good packaging company in the world, they can create the 2d code "standard" on consumer good packaging for mobile devices going forward. Once could say this is a "tip of the old Hatlo Hat" to Scanbuy when they explained to DuPont how they could be in charge of the domain registry for physical world connection for consumer goods.

<snip>

Being at the top of the "food chain", you can create the standard just on size alone.

When Scanbuy teamed up with Dupont in a licensing deal, they didn't just get one major brand, they got an international company that creates the packaging for thousands of major brands. Scanbuy has the ability to indirectly represent and connect thousands of major brands in several countries.

<snip>

Landing the largest consumer packaging good company will force the others (phone manuf, wireless carriers) to adapt/implement their business plans around this standard. See how powerful this licensing deal is now?"

Now, I know it's PP saying that, but it's also the first thing I thought when I saw that news.

Boy, the rest of the PP stuff in that entry (about MC2, Nokia/Scanbuy, etc) that I did not paste here, heavy stuff. I swear, IMHO I'm starting to think it all reads like Neomedia's epitaph as far as being the honcho in this space.

They may be lucky to pick up dribs and drabs. Like the Mexican Open.

Dang
