Internet, it's too bad he didn't act a little sooner, (like 4-5 years ago or even a year ago) and concentrated on the core business.

In any case, the market for FDE and TPM is as big as ever. Every major drive maker is will be on board with FDE. So far, Wave is working with Seagate, Fujitsu and Toshiba. It's fair to say that Fujitsu and Toshiba laptops will soon have FDE drives and that they may secure some whitebox deals.

There is also Hitachi, which (used to be IBM) which I believe supplies Lenovo. Wave does not have an announced deal with Hitachi, but I believe Wave works with them. In fact I recall an old post of yours that Hitachi stated they were working with Wave.

That leaves Western Digital and Samsung as the last major hard drive makers. Both are in the TCG, and I'd expect that they will be announcing their products before too long.
