Will TiVo Become Software Inside Your TV? [view article]
It is possible to load a TV with Tivo software, and have an external SATA connection. The external disk drive would still be "another box" though. ReplyWill TiVo Become Software Inside Your TV? [view article]
I beg to differ. There are a few models (LG did this as far back as 05 or 06, I think) with Hard Drive but I don't see it as a trend that consumers will ever adopt. Can you point to many new models that are actually getting sales traction?Mfrs will price their sets out of the market unless they all conspire to have hard drives. Similar to built-in DVD and VHS players--a niche only. People won't want to repair/replace TV if disc drive fails. Just can't see it. Reply
Will TiVo Become Software Inside Your TV? [view article]
Not true. Newer TVs now have built-in hard drives and all you need is a broadband connection (such as cable) for TiVo to download it's software for full DVR functionality. No disc drive necessary! ReplyWill TiVo Become Software Inside Your TV? [view article]
While it's true TiVo is going increasingly to an IP licensing business model, they still are working to differentiate their boxes. Furthermore, until they start putting disc drives inside TVs (and I see no reason why mfrs would drive up their prices by doing so), separate DVRs aren't going away.Incorporating a cable box (tuning, decoding) is a different prospect than incorporating a DVR.

What Classifies Web Video as HD Quality? [view article]
What does the definition of HD video have to do with alpha portfolio management is beyond me.SeekingAlpha.com should edit articles more closely and ensure that the topic stays on financial analysis and portfolio management, not some ramblings on this or that. Reply
Most Overbought/Oversold Stocks [view article]
so much for the "overbought" category, check it now.I find it rather ironic that sold many "overbrought"...
energy stocks were listed when the whole world
knows we have had, and still have a real energy problem. Just an observation, form your own conclusions.

The WiMax Deal Is a Disaster: How Google Got Snookered [view article]
Thanks for the info, This article has motivated me to take a position with regards to WIMAX and if this is the best arguments against the tech then the prospects are good. The POTENTIAL is HUGE, even if all it does is provide last mile access to far flung neighborhoods and basic data connectivity to vending machines, medical instruments etc it sounds like we have a moneymaker on our hands. In addition the very idea of an open network is enticing because they can end up being used in ways that are completely unforeseen and profitable as well. ReplyWill the Exxon Go Green?

I would agree although, markets have always been manipulated so how can we operated our free market unhindered? Reply2
Will the Exxon Go Green? Fast Money Recap (5/27/08) [view article]
"Karen Finerman says there is enough money to diversify into alternative energy, and Najarian agrees". Two communist, they are traders to this country, and are undermining this country as our enemies do. All the GREEN MEANIES should crawl in a hole some where, and let this country, and its FREE market operate unhindered. ReplyWall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [view article]
I need PREMARKET INFO. Does yr WS Breakfast come email before the bell?Reply
Will Sprint Become the Wireless Company of Choice? [view article]
Yeah right, Sprint the company to wireless company of choice! Good god, almost made me choke on my coffee by laughing so hard! ReplyThe WiMax Deal Is a Disaster: How Google Got Snookered [view article]
I don't really believe the other major carriers are too worried about this "new" competitor (can't really call Sprint a competitor to AT&T and Verizon with the hemorraghing of customers they've had lately). Both Clearwire (Portland) & Sprextel (Chicago & DC) have had WiMax markets built out for almost a year now & still have yet to release them to the public....smells like they're having troubles getting it to work to me. Even if they already broken promise to launch by end of year comes to fruition, the supposed "first to market" advantage will be greatly negated as LTE is literally (in wireless terms) right around the corner. At most all the new Clearwire is promising is less than half the population covered by 2010, which just happens to be when the other carriers start LTE launch. I can promise you they will not take as much time as Clearwire is taking to fully launch & cover their markets. I also want to comment it takes MUCH more money to deploy a new nationwide technology than the pittance the bidders (Google, Intel, cable companies, etc.) have committed to so again, doesn't look pretty to me.

Look at the other advisors who have picked up on her theme, finally! ReplyWall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [view article]
I think spinster, cindy retard, savyinvestor, etc whether she be single or married, rich or poor, sick or healthy financially or otherwise has done a great deal of good this past week with her summaries of posts collected from the e-trade message board. I would give her a raise. ReplyWall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [view article]
Before the market opens or later, I never miss your "breakfast". The quickest summary of what's happening that I know of. Thanks. Reply
