wrote: HD radio application specific integrated chip sets are yet to be found There was a bogus press release by iBiquity last May stating that both Samsung and SiPort were sampling HD IBOC application specific chip or chip set at that time. I can then find several articles by technical news sites that all appear to stem from this one bogus iBiquity press release but that's about it. You will notice that wherever this news is mentioned that there are no part numbers mentioned. This is a very good indicator of the press release being pure marketing BS. The SiPort web site still looks like a shell site with no news about an HD chip or chip set. http://www.siport.com/ A search of the Samsung site just today indicates no news of this development either. http://www.samsung.com/global/busine...cts/Products.h tml An application specific IBOC chip or chip set is still vaporware as far as I can tell so feel free to go search the links above. -- Telamon Ventura, California No secret here. Ibiquity lacks honesty with many of their public announcements. The latest lie concerns "HD" radio prices breaking the $100 barrier. What they don't mention is that many retailers are trying to get rid of them with drastic price reductions, rebates, etc. The Sony XDR-S3HD which was selling for $200 is now $49 in many stores. Radiosophy is selling their radio at half price just to unlioad them. These are not the signs of a successful product in spite of what Eduardo thinks. |
