"However the digEcor product line evolves, it is very unlikely to be based on mass-market commercial-off-the-shelf hardware, according to Beeston."

"However the digEcor product line evolves"

This phrase does not sound too encouraging....

"it is very unlikely to be based on mass-market commercial-off-the-shelf hardware,"

Neither does this one. For news released 11/26/06, not a very firm statement of anything happening.

They're wise to the IMS Fujitsu laptop and  the Astronics YES! tablet PC endeavors.

Big as Wencor seems to be, as a private company, it amazes me that they would take on the liability ....just to have control of the manufacturing process.

Beeston......pay a vendor for the risk...and get on with your lives.
