o Microsoft Issues First Details of
Next-Generation Xbox
San Francisco -- Microsoft on Wednesday provided the first public
details of its next-generation Xbox video game console at the Game
Developers Conference in San Francisco, focusing on the device's
support for high-definition (HD) content. The next Xbox will deliver
more than a teraflop of computing power through a processor
co-developed with IBM and graphics processor co-developed with ATI
Technologies, which will enable high-definition graphics,
multichannel audio, richer online communications and more on-demand
game content. Microsoft's second crack at a video game console will
include the Xbox Guide, an entertainment gateway that will feature
personalized "gamer card" profiles for Xbox Live users; a
marketplace for gamers to purchase small content items as
micro-transactions; and custom playlists so gamers can listen to
their own tracks while gaming instead of an in-game soundtrack.

o Justice Dept.
Announces 3 Convictions for Internet Game, Software Piracy
Washington -- The U.S. Justice Dept. has announced that three men
have pleaded guilty to criminal copyright infringement charges as a
result of an 18-month games and software piracy investigation,
"Operation Higher Education," that spanned 12 countries. The three
admitted to having leadership roles in online piracy or "warez"
groups Fairlight and Kalisto, which cracked security on video game
titles and other software and then posted downloadable versions of
titles on IRC and peer-to-peer file-sharing networks. Seth
Kleinberg, 26, of Pasadena, California faces up to 10 years in
prison, while Jeffrey Lerman, 20, of College Park, Maryland and
Albert Bryndzda, 32, of Flushing, New York both may be sentenced to
up to five years in prison. The Justice Dept. said Operation Higher
Education is part of its larger "Operation Fastlink," which has so
far yielded 70 "high-level targets" and a total of six convictions
since it was launched in April 2004. Separately, Attorney General
Albertro Gonzales on Wednesday named Kyle Sampson, deputy chief of
staff and counselor to the Attorney General, as the new chairman of
the the Justice Department's Task Force on Intellectual Property,
created to protect "the creativity, resourcefulness, and innovation
of Americans and to curb the threat that intellectual property
crimes pose to the nation’s economic security."

o Voom HD
Satellite TV Service Gets Shutdown Reprieve Until March 31
Bethpage, N.Y. -- The Voom high-definition satellite TV service
got a new lease on life Wednesday, as owner cable TV operator parent
company Cablevision announced an interim agreement to allow Voom to
continue operations until March 31, while Cablevision chairman
Charles Dolan and his son, Cablevision CEO Thomas Dolan, seek a
means to avoid a shutdown. Cablevision sold its Rainbow DBS service,
including the satellite that transmits Voom, to DISH Network parent
EchoStar last month. The elder Dolan has since been attempting to
save Voom and its 46,000 subscribers through a purchase of the
company's assets; under the new deal, Charles Dolan will assume any
costs incurred by Rainbow DBS above what it would pay to shut Voom
down.

o WSJ: AOL
to Launch Internet Phone Service Within Month
Dulles, Va. -- Looking to get in on a rapidly expanding market,
America Online plans to launch a new Internet phone service within a
month, The Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday. The company,
which had been expected by most analysts to enter the market,
initially will offer service in 44 markets. The Journal reported
that the company's pricing will likely be similar to that of Vonage,
which offers unlimited domestic calling for $24.99 a month. Vonage
recently became the first broadband telephony provider to activate
more than 500,000 lines. With 22 million Internet subscribers
already in tow, however, AOL will have the potential to dwarf that
number. The Yankee Group has said that it expects 2.8 million
Internet telephone users by the end of this year. AOL's service will
be powered by Level 3 Communications and Sonus Networks.

o Virgin
Electronics Shuts Down, Less Than Year After Launch
San Jose, Calif. -- Virgin Electronics, the unit of Sir Richard
Branson's Virgin Group launched less than a year ago to sell
portable digital music players and other consumer electronics, has
shut down after failing to receive additional funding from the
parent company, Engadget.com reported. The closure is effective
immediately, with the company discontinuing all products while
promising to honor active warranties. Virgin Electronics had so far
launched three MP3 players, including a 5GB hard drive-based model,
several models of portable speakers and various accessories.

o Cox
Communications Looks to Sell Four Cable Operations
Atlanta -- Cox Communications, the nation's third-largest cable TV
operator, announced that it is exploring a sale of four cable
operations with a total of about 900,000 subscribers. The company
said this is one of a number of strategic options being considered
to reduce debt and accelerate growth. Operations under consideration
for sale are located in parts of West Texas; North Carolina;
California, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi and Missouri.
Cox has a total of about 6.6 million total customers, including
about 6.3 million basic cable subscribers.

o Comcast,
Motorola Sign $1 Billion Set-top Box Deal
Philadelphia -- Comcast, the nation's largest cable TV operator,

commitment valued at over $1 billion. Under the deal, Motorola will
provide Comcast subscribers with high-definition digital video
recorders and other set-tops. The two companies also announced the
formation of two joint ventures that will focus on the development
and licensing of current and future conditional access and other
cable technologies. "This is part of Comcast's continued focus on
the development of industry-wide specifications for key components
of set-top boxes -- including conditional access systems,
interactive program guides and middleware -- that will help add
consumer value and reinforce cable's position as the provider of
choice for home entertainment and information," said Comcast COO
Steve Burke.

"Total War" Game Developer Creative Assembly
San Francisco -- Japanese video games firm Sega announced on
Wednesday that its Sega Europe unit has acquired The Creative

o Academici
Launches Network for Researchers Worldwide
Birmingham, England -- Academici Ltd., a U.K.-based start-up, has
launched what it describes as the world's first global online
networking platform for academics and scientists. The company said
the service -- an "exclusive network for eggheads" -- aimed to
improve communication across disciplines and borders between
academics, academia-related associations, societies, academic
services, students and academic-related business. "Academici is
about networking with academics and researchers across continents
and about content, facilitating the exchange of ideas, discussing
research findings," said the University of Birmingham's Markus
Vinzent, one of the founders of the platform. The Technical
University of Chemnitz, Germany, has already agreed to take up
corporate membership of the site, Academici said.

o DVD Trading
Service Peerflix Lands First Round of Funding
Menlo Park, Calif. -- Peerflix, an online service that allows
members to legally trade DVDs, said on Tuesday that it has raised an
unspecified amount in its first round of funding, co-led by 3i and
BV Capital. The funding will be used to accelerate member
acquisition, scale the company's infrastructure and develop new
product offerings and enhancements. Launched in 2004, Peerflix
operates a peer-to-peer service that allows DVD owners to trade DVDs
that they no longer want for others they would like to watch. The
company said that more than 25,000 are currently being requested for
trade on its site, with plans to expand into other products,
including video games and CDs. The service, still in its beta phase,
is currently offered in the U.S. and Canada, with international
expansion planned for the future.
