Hi, Jeff,
With the next generation of consumer electronics product just beginning to come out, we believe we have positioned e.Digital in the mainstream of opportunity with our technology, standards support, product platforms, OEM partners and customers, and business model. With the assistance of Fleishman Hillard, we are coordinating our efforts with our OEM customers and their public relations staffs in preparing and disseminating announcements and information. While the exact timeframes of announcements and product availability are mainly controlled by our OEM customers, we expect developments based on our HDD-based portable digital jukebox platform, DataPlay-enabled devices and other platforms to be announced. Specifically, based on current information provided by our OEM customers and OEM licensees, we anticipate availability of consumer products based on our HDD-based digital jukebox platform in retail distribution channels this quarter.
Samsung, Toshiba and other OEM customers are expected to market DataPlay-based, e.Digital-enabled devices later this year when DataPlay's optical storage technology is scheduled to become widely available. We expect more information regarding these developments to be forthcoming.
We have dedicated strategic engineering resources to the development and implementation of new product platforms that include digital video for portable devices, automotive and home stereo designs, cellular phone accessories, and set-top boxes. We are working with multiple OEMs on specific applications of these MicroOS- and MicroCAM-powered platforms for inclusion in a variety of branded products.
Announced as well as unannounced OEMs and licensees are expected to make announcements either before or when their "Powered by e.Digital Technology" consumer products are formally launched. We continue to be very confident about our company, technology, product platforms, OEM customers and business. Please e-mail me or call me on my direct line at 858.679.3168 if I can be of further assistance.
Best regards,
Robert Putnam Senior Vice President
