What does George Jetson think of Microsoft?
Alereon CEO Eric Broockman discusses rumors and reality surrounding Microsoft's Zune, as well as the roles UWB may play in future digital-audio players.
"For a moment though, let's consider Microsoft's Zune project and where might it be going… [which] is like an iPod, but includes WiFi so that the user isn't required to have a PC or be near a PC in order to purchase songs. Not sure I see it as such a killer feature, but it is different. … What would be a compelling feature though is the ability to play selective X-Box games on the Zune player. … Now let's consider George Jetson for a moment. George would suggest that Microsoft offer an accessory pair of HDTV viewing LCD glasses for sale to connect to the Zune using Wireless USB. Imagine sitting in the waiting area of the airport watching an HDTV quality movie on your glasses or playing an Internet connected game (over the WiFi link), or playing a solo X-Box car racing game."
From Broockman's blog, "Life Without Wires."
