The Real Battle at Comdex: Intellectual Property vs. Internet Protocol (Linux Journal)

Doc Searls continues his Comdex coverage in this Linux Journal article. "As I said in my first show report, this year Comdex was mostly a Microsoft show, a place where the company and its most compliant hardware OEMs could showcase the new Tablet PC. But in a larger sense, it also was an arena where marketing fought markets, where the hares of intellectual property raced the tortoises of internet protocol, where those that want to own the world confronted those that want to make a world that can't be owned."
