Post IBC Analysis: Set Top Boxes I was expecting a stream of widget demos at the STB maker booths, but my itinerary took me mostly to the operator STB boxes. We have to settle for a generation-and-a-half behind the best retail boxes like Roku or Popcorn hour.
Negotiations are going on behind the scenes between channels, operators and device makers so that the long awaited widgets can become context aware and we get a win-win-win situation. If these discussions come through we should at last expect some really exciting widget demos at IBC 2010. I’m told NDS was the only place you got a peek at this future.
