That's weird. I wonder why he'd yank your chain that way? He was
probably just joking around.

iBiquity never made claims about portables. The first mention has been in
the Samsung press releases about low cost low power chips.

Nothing was said in '04 about portable devices except "we hope they can
figure this one out."


This is incorrect. A great deal was said and the expectation was that
they'd be available very soon.

Then you will have no trouble producing a link or two.

Not according to Samsung. They predict that the chipsets will be very
expensive indeed.

No, they don't.

Actually, they do.

Like nearly all your recent posts, you show that you don't understand the
radio business model and are lying about the technical issues of HD.

For example:
Samsung developing new chipset for HD Radio
Thursday, May 10, 2007 at 9:49 AM

Samsung said they will introduce a new low-power, low-cost chipset for HD
Radio receivers. These new chipsets will be an important step in the
development of portable HD Radios.


Samsung figures that samples of the chipset will be available before the end
of the 2007 - and production anticipated for the first quarter of 2008.

The low-power, high-performance chip will be capable of supporting all
current and planned HD Radio technology features. It is being designed and
manufactured using advanced technology and features a System-in-Package
(SIP) module and a CMOS, mixed-signal single-chip tuner.

Target HD Radio applications include: mobile phones, portable media players,
portable navigation devices, table radios and home audio-video components.

If HD Radio is able to integrate into mobile phones and portable media
players before satellite radio does, then we have no one to blame but
ourselves.
