I particularly like the part about content protection technologies (if four media companies decide that some content protection technology--think broadcast flag--is necessary, then CableLabs implicity agrees with them). Anyway, it doesn&#039;t answer the question about whether the box would be in OCAP all the time or not, though the part about how the MSO can&#039;t block the TV Guide data is interesting in this regard, though it isn&#039;t clear this would be relevant if the box uses tru2way or not.  In fact it doesn&#039;t say much of anything on how you would enable OCAP on your TV (turn it on or opt in?), whether OCAP might be a mode or not, etc.  Sort of odd.  Kind of implies that all of that is in the existing specs which are listed in the back...</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looks like the MOU is out in public, due to it being provided to the FCC:</p><p><a

We are confident in the technology and are on track to introduce this software platform and services at retail later this year in select markets.  We are working closely with multiple CE companies to bring interactive services and products to consumers.  As is the case with most certification processes for new technologies, there are many steps and trials that companies need to go through before technologies are introduced to consumers.  As with any innovative and complex technology, the development, testing and certification phases require work and issues will arise.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Comcast continues to be completely committed to tru2way.
