"In an interview at Cisco headquarters this week, Mr. Chambers said that a worldwide revolution in mobile devices and sensors, connected to huge Internet computer systems, was roiling technology giants like Microsoft, I.B.M., Hewlett-Packard, SAP, Oracle and Cisco."

FWIW....

IMO, we can thank Fred for not standardizing e.Digitals technology through Voice Times....

IBM and Intel were working close together in that initiative....

The Intel /e.Digital relationship was not worth it....IMO, they would have had to give away rights to the micro-processor 21 platform and the software issues in front of it.

Today, I have no doubt in my mind, they would not have been able to create the NUNCHI platform had they given in.
