Boom..On secude-I'm pretty sure that only Wave's software (TDM and tools) works with a PC that has a TPM. I think Secude is saying their software works with both software and hardware encryption. All of Dell's Latitudes come with TPM so I don't think Secude will compete there. I'm sure others will be able to give you a more complete explanation.
boombreaker.........yes they will be competitive in
a non TPM enviroment but to be honest this is now the 3rd company that has announced Seagate FDE support alongside their existing FDE software....others will follow!
