o Court Rules Lexmark Can't Invoke DMCA Against Third-Party Ink Cartridges

Louisville, Ken. -- A federal appeals court has overturned a ruling that banned a maker of replacement ink cartridges for printers from selling its products because they allegedly violated the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Kentucky-based printer maker Lexmark includes security chips in its replacement ink cartridges designed to prevent third-party companies from profiting off of toner sales. Lexmark sued North Carolina-based Static Control Components, arguing the company violated a provision of the DMCA that prohibits circumvention of copyright security on devices when it reverse engineered and released ink cartridges with chips that would be recognized and accepted by Lexmark printers. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati has ordered a lower court to hold new hearings on the matter. "We should make clear that in the future companies like Lexmark cannot use the DMCA in conjunction with copyright law to create monopolies of manufactured goods for themselves just by tweaking the facts of this case," the 6th Circuit wrote in its ruling. A similar ruling from an appeals court in Washington (Chamberlain v. Skylink) upheld the rights of companies to develop and sell "universal" remote control garage door openers.

o Sony Sets $186 Price Tag, Dec. 12 Release for PSP Handheld in Japan

Tokyo -- Sony announced on Wednesday that it will launch its PSP (PlayStation Portable) handheld video game console in Japan on Dec. 12 with a price tag of $186, well below industry and analyst estimates of what the device might cost. The PSP is slated for release in the U.S. and Europe in early 2005. Sony said that 21 games are due out for the device by the end of the year -- including "Need for Speed Underground Rivals," "Tiger Woods PGA Tour" and "Metal Gear Acid" -- and that over 100 titles are currently in development for the PSP. Nintendo has scheduled the release of its new DS handheld console, which will carry a $149 price tag, ten days before the PSP hits store shelves in Japan.

o Google Acquires 3D Satellite Image Provider Keyhole

Mountain View, Calif. -- Search engine giant Google announced on Wednesday that it has acquired Keyhole, a provider of digital mapping information culled from satellites and airplanes. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Mountain View, Calif.-based Keyhole also offers software -- which Google said it will immediately discount from $69 to $29 -- that allows zooming from space-level to street-level, as well as the ability to tilt and rotate the view, and search for hotels, parks, ATMs or subways. "This acquisition gives Google users a powerful new search tool, enabling users to view 3D images of any place on earth as well as tap a rich database of roads, businesses and many other points of interest," said Jonathan Rosenberg, Google's vice president of product management.

o Report: Three Hollywood Studios to Endorse Toshiba HD DVD Standard

San Francisco -- BusinessWeek Online reported on Wednesday that Toshiba is slated within the next week to announce deals with three Hollywood movie studios that have agreed to release films on the company's HD DVD high-capacity DVD format, which competes with rival Blu-ray DVD technology developed by Sony. Warner Bros., Universal and Paramount are soon expected to announce their support for HD DVD, while Disney is also reported to be in talks with Toshiba. The endorsement of Hollywood studios is seen as crucial for both formats in order to become the dominant standard for next-generation DVD discs, which will boost storage capacity from the current standard of 4.5B per disc to up to 30GB per disc. Sony will likely release Blu-ray DVD movies from Columbia, MGM and other movie studios it owns.

o TiVo, NFL Reach Agreement on Live Remote Access of NFL Games

San Jose, Calif. -- Digital video recorder firm TiVo announced that it has reached an agreement with the National Football League (NFL) regarding the league's concerns over TiVo users' potential to screen games outside of their local television market, using a TiVo feature that allows remote access of recorded programming. While the two will work to ensure that TiVo owners can't make real-time retransmissions of NFL broadcasts, the NFL "agreed that enhancing the ability of individual TiVo subscribers to access their own recorded programming remotely from properties, such as vacation homes owned by those subscribers, is both in the public interest and is a positive advance in technology that should be encouraged." "We are pleased TiVo has agreed to deploy the technology in a way that will not permit the real time signal piracy that the NFL has always viewed with great concern," said NFL executive vice president of media Steve Bornstein.

o RIAA Names First "Gold" and "Platinum" Digital Singles

Los Angeles -- The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on Wednesday announced the first digital singles to have sold enough downloads to qualify for "gold" and "platinum" sales status. While for CDs, gold is equivalent to 500,000 albums sold and platinum equals 1 million in sales, for digital singles "gold" status is equated with 100,000 downloads and "platinum" status is awarded for sales of 200,000 downloads. Only hip-hop duo OutKast has achieved multiplatinum status, with sales of over 400,000 downloads of its single, "Hey Ya!"; the group also saw two of its other digital singles achieve platinum sales status. Other platinum artists named by the RIAA included D12, Hoobastank and Maroon 5. Artists achieving gold status for sales of 100,000 digital singles included Coldplay, Sheryl Crow, The Darkness and Britney Spears.

o Glasses-Free 3D Firm X3D Raises $10 Million, Changes Name to Opticality

New York -- X3D Technologies, a developer of glasses-free 3D technology and displays, announced on Wednesday that it has raised $10 million in venture capital from MCT Global Opportunities Fund, and changed the name of the company to Opticality Corp. The company also announced that it will relocate its headquarters to Research Triangle Park in Cary, North Carolina. Opticality has developed versions of its 3D displays for use in cell phones, PDAs, automobile navigation systems, military applications, medical imaging devices, and both gambling and arcade gaming machines. "We are delivering today into the market the next generation of visualization technology," said Opticality CEO Myles A. Owens. "Eventually every PC and home TV will be glasses-free 3D enabled."
