My mistake. I was thinking "set tops" when Ron was talking silicon.
FWIW, I saw lots of people using reference set tops from folks like
Broadcom
to demonstrate their gear, with a few glitches (which were naturally=20
attributed to the other person's kit). I saw a lot of folks displaying
their "H.264 compatible set tops" but when pressed were either streaming
MPEG-2 video to them, or were using a PC behind the curtain to drive the
display. And I saw a couple of pre-production STBs that were actually
decoding H.264 or VC1 but whose production run was in the single digits.
It is very early days for set tops.
