Larry, actually, it would not do me much good. I don't have a PC with a TPM in in it. However, I am comfortable that a reasonable % of enterprise users will find Wave's services valuable. Intel and IBM seem to think so, and they are almost as big an enterprise you can get.

Secure documents and secure storage are some of the basic services available. Wave will also be selling a utility package for the management of TPM's. As enterprises begin to deploy TPM PC's in quantity and use the services that are available, it will be necessary to adminster who has which machine and have the ability of backing up and recovering secure information.

Wave has a few dozen services(only a few have been announced) already on the shelf and will introduce them as the market and PC's oems are ready for them. I can imagine consumer services that allow you a single sign on to multiple websites using the TPM to ensure security. How about secure chat, email, pictures and video using the security of the TPM.

Sites like EBay, Amazon and your brokers site, will migrate to using TPM's (as they deploy)to make your transactions even more secure.
