Tampa--The mega PR is certainly going to be NBC Olympics via TVTonic on High Definition TV! This recent PR was just the preamble!


If watching the Olympics/TVTonic on laptops makes you giddy, imagine what it would be like on HD TV. As Michael Sprague once modestly put it:

"If you combine the Media Center function linking web content to the home television with a great interface for managing web content as if it were TV GUIDE ON STERIODS...."

By the way, the most recent rumor involves TVTonic trying to recruit Barry Bonds to endorse TV Guide on Steriods part.

I think it is woefully underappreciated that TCTonic on the HD TV essentially takes over the whole screen as a superimposed TV Guide plus Internet DVR. IMAGINE THAT! The channels and other data are superimposed over the content making it a full screen experience. If that doesn't put TVTonic right smack in the middle of the most scorching hot investment sector, then wake me up in the morning! The channels and other data are superimposed over the content making it a full screen experience.

And there will be INTERACTIVE FEATURES that will be the Kaboom Application---Picking your own camera angles for Olympic events for example will blow folks away! Any bets on whether HD TV will be promoted at your Best Buy, Wal Mart, Target etc will be demoing NBC Olympics Highlights with Interactive features?

The new generation of Set Top Boxes and HD TVs already have Extender embedded inside. Turn on your new HD TV and "extending" from the PC to your TV should be a snap.

And with the new Cablecard specs out that allow for two way communication between the Set Top Box or HD TV and the Internet content providers you can completely bypass the PC for Interactive Internet content.

THE NEW REVOLUTION IS OPEN PLATFORM HD TV AND TVTONIC IS RIGHT SMACK IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.

How did TVTonic end up in the epicenter of the consumer drive---very simple: it is leveraging their expertise on Trusted Computing because the whole digital revolution on BOTH the consumer and enterprise side breaks down into anarchy without Trust and Security.

CableCARD goes two-way with new specs

The two-way technology would allow your device to communicate with the content servers, opening up a theoretical universe of applications for your device, such as Web browsing and games. Sony is said to be including the technology CableCARD-free in TVs later this year.
