Internet TV Middleware: An Telco Provider Necessity?
Whilemost Internet surfers are probably still learning about IPTV (InternetTV), telcos should scramble to offer the service, to keep up with cableproviders’ triple play offerings. So says Light Reading, who say it’s a necessity to telecoms:
IPTV middleware is the technology that can deliver that advantage to telecom carriers.
In other words, don’t fear IPTV, embrace it?
Mac OS X iPhone?
Could it be? Could the Mac iPhone, scheduled for some mysterious date early next year, be running Mac OS X? Tech Digesthas a pic (illustration?) of some gadget that seems to have no buttonswhatsoever, and some “desktop” that may or may not be OS X. Thespeculation is that the phone will run a stripped down “Leopard”, thenext version of OS X. That would certainly make sense.

I’ve written previously that Hullo hadhigh quality calls between computer and phone - enough to impress myfather, who said that other pc-to-phone solutions didn’t compare.
