The chip was widely promoted at the CES.

Show me a link so I can read about it then.

Does it's existence on the web make it real?

The fact is that Samsung has worked with iBiquity on the chip, and they
announced its development and availability schedule at the CES to the
interested parties. There are two more single chip 9 mm low power
consumption chips from other fabs accepting orders now, too.

The new Colby PORTABLE HD Radio has only 5 hours of battery life - so
much for your low-power HD chipsets.

There is no radio with the new chipset yet. The chips will ship in
quantity
in Q2 of 2008 and there should be stock in stores by the end of Q3 of
this
year.

You mean the chips that were supposed to ship last spring, then last
summer, then last fall, then the 1st quarter of 2008 is now going to
ship in 2nd quarter of 2008. I don't think so.

No, the Samsung chip was not even announced until late last year. They
promised design specs and sample quantities in Q1 and so far are on track.

Once a chip ships, it takes 6 to 18 weeks to get product into the channels.

It was announced to radio, to the CES members who manufacture radios. Just
wait a few months for the radios with those chips to be announced, probably
around June or so.
