As I have often pointed out, files stored via MOS cannot be read by non-MOS operating systems.
MOS is simple file management firmware. It is NOT an operating system. I have never seen any official claim by e.Digital that would verify what you are trying to claim is a fact.
In fact, the operation of e.Digital's MP3 players seems to prove that your claim is false. For example, the Odyssey 1000 can be used as a portable hard drive and any content can be transfered to another computer without any problem being read. How do you explain this major discrepancy.
Tinroad, simplifying non-issues for some negative agenda contributors must really set them back. Some continue to prove by the issues they bring to the table how desperate they are in being right in all their concepts.
Do you think this might be why we established a strategic partnership with Actel ??
STRATEGIC INDUSTRY RELATIONSHIPS & ASSOCIATIONS
LICENSEES
Companies with related but not competing technologies have agreed to license our technologies and/or designs. To varying degrees, these partners promote and market our work with their own. They may, from time to time, refer customers to e.Digital. With these strategic partners, we may collaborate on projects where both partners could benefit financially. We have such marketing partnerships with Actel, Digitalway, Eastech, Maycom, Musical Electronics, Orient Power, and PortalPlayer.
SAN DIEGO, Calif. and SUNNYVALE, Calif. - October 16, 2001 - e.Digital Corp. (OTC: EDIG), a global provider of comprehensive digital product development and designs, and Actel Corp. (Nasdaq: ACTL), a supplier of innovative programmable logic solutions, today announced a technology relationship that will allow e.Digital's proprietary design to be produced within Actel's ASIC-like (application-specific integrated circuit-like) eX field-programmable gate array (FPGA) devices. e.Digital's new solution is designed to increase reliability and reduce the board space required for implementation of advanced digital voice and music recorder/player functionality in small portable devices, such as portable Internet music players and personal digital jukeboxes.
How does ProASICPLUS fit into the Actel product offering? Actel offers products in three different technologies, antifuse, SRAM and Flash. SRAM is used for our embedded FPGA offering where ProASICPLUS is more similar to our antifuse standard FPGA. ProASICPLUS is single chip, nonvolatile, live at power-up and has high design security like antifuse but is also reprogrammable. ProASICPLUS is an enhanced performance family that also extends the density range of the existing ProASIC Flash product offering. It offers a fine-grained architecture that is ASIC-like in design methodology and allows you to use your existing ASIC design tools and flow to quickly get your design into production. During development the reprogrammable feature reduces the costs of time and materials in a redesign. With a 1 million system gates it is Actel's largest FPGA and the world's largest Flash FPGA that is targeted at the ASIC replacement market.
The Axcelerator family of antifuse FPGAs takes performance to new levels. Built on Actel's innovative sea-of-modules architecture, Axcelerator FPGAs are designed to deliver 100% pure performance without the penalties of high-power, lack of design security, and susceptibility to firm errors associated with SRAM FPGAs. The Axcelerator family of FPGAs deliver:
High Performance Low Power Lowest Total System Cost The High-Security Solution
FPGAs are quickly becoming the new alternative to ASICs. Many systems today have a significant portion of the total system-level IP inside the FPGA. Since a conventional SRAM-based FPGA is volatile, it must be re-initialized every time power is applied. This re-initialization requires an external bitstream is loaded into the FPGA. This external bitstream also allows easy, noninvasive copying of the design. Unlike SRAM-based FPGAs, Axcelerator does not require an external bitstream and provides significantly higher design security. The FuseLock™ secure programming technology used in the Axcelerator family is highly resistant to both invasive and noninvasive security attacks.
FlashLock: Security in Actel Flash FPGAs Until the advent of the ProASIC and ProASICPLUS families of Flash-based FPGAs there was no secure reprogrammable logic technology available for embedded systems designers. While antifuse is the most secure of all programmable logic solutions because of the difficulty associated with trying to copy or reverse engineer the contents of a design, Flash-based ProASICPLUS FPGAs with FlashLock have the advantage of reprogammability and security. The large distributed nature of the security key along with the physical road blocks of homogeneous structure (unlike ASICs) and a floating gate Flash programming element that cannot be microprobed make ProASICPLUS FPGAs inherently secure. All Actel Flash FPGAs are virtually impossible to copy or reverse engineer.
I don`t claim to understand any of the above, but just highlighted what seems might be important regarding the security issue. Your thoughts would be much appreciated.
