Moto's Zander talks up RAZR's forthcoming live video capture
Next up at NXTcomm is Ed Zander, CEO of Motorola.
Major takeaway from Zander’s address is the evolution in the way content is created and then distributed. “It is changing from tv channels to spontaneous generation,” he said.
Ed then explained Motorola’s belief that this spontaneous generation will be enabled in the RAZR2 via an embedded video camera, as well as the device’s two hours of video storage capacity.
“Content distribution (is changing) from broadcast to ‘Personacast,’ ” Zander added. (Now) “you are a tv station, you are a radio station, you are a distributor of content. “We need to enable this with big broadband networks.”
