  • Coppergate Acquires HomePlug AV Assets of Conexant
  • 6 days ago
  • Today Coppergate, the primary provider of HPNA 3.1 silicon, acquired the HomePlug AV assets from Conexant. Conexant, which continues to be parted out like a 67 Chevy (it announced the sale of its set-top box products to NXP last week), hasn't been much of a presence in HomePlug, selling some HomePlug 1.0 chips and never quite productizing their HomePlug AV product line to the point where it was r ...
  • HomeGrid: Believe It or Not, Another Physical Layer Home Networking Standard

I actually stumbled across the new Facebook app today that allows for Hulu streamed video within Facebook. While not all of the shows are available, it has a pretty good selection.
