  1. from the Dutch blog in the Slashdot article on TiVo Buys Super Secret Strangeberry · · Score: 2, Informative

    Hi, I make the Dutch blog mentioned in the article. Just to get the story straight: the boxes in the picture on my site are similar to the ones that were featured in this week's PC World. See http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,114355,0 0.asp There's nothing secret about those devices: they connect your tv to your home network. As I understand, they were seen all over this year's CES. The official Tivo statement says 'Strangeberry has created technology (...) designed to enable the development of new broadband-based content delivery services.' And as you can judge by the resumes of the Strangeberry guys (http://www.strangeberry.com/about), they are software specialists, not hardware guys. And just to be clear (as I am getting a lot of e-mail since your posting on Slashdot linking to my blog): I am not associated with Strangeberry in any way. I am just a friend of Arthur's, as I wrote on my English blog about this: http://mf.typepad.com/on_the_road/2004/01/chief_sm artberr.html
