Apple lives for standards...if they own them....SNDK lives for standards if they own them...etc

IMO, Some one will gobble up e.Digital if they desire to standardize a new realm of data management with integral-fundamentals.... and just as important, the microprocessor methods that drive the integral-fundamentals.

IMO, the way I see things anyway... this is what IBM and Intel tried to do through Voice Times alliance...standardize, e.Digital backed off (we are not contributing our methods) and the rest is history. They were looking to standardize matters of some sort....
