CNET.com: DVRs tune in to integration
Digital video recorders may someday be ubiquitous, but first they're going to have to disappear. DVRs, which let consumers store TV shows on hard drives and pause live shows.
MyCast is a DVR that includes a feature allowing NTT DoCoMo's cell phone subscribers to program their DVRs from their I-mode phones.
...Integration of a technology to a chipset is considered a watershed moment, often leading manufacturers to adopt the technology at lower price points. Kishore estimates that there are about 1.2 million homes with devices that have DVR capabilities now, and he expects that number to expand to 18.6 million by 2006. That compares with the approximately 130 million PCs that manufacturers ship each year--close to half of which go to consumers.
