Will CableCard eclipse the set-top box?

CableCard appears to signal the beginning of the end for the basic set-top box. But the change will likely take several years to play out. In the interim, new technologies are coming along that could revive the set-top box, or rather, see it evolve. More complex boxes are already on the way that combine digital-video recording, video-on-demand and media server capabilities such as HP’s media “hub.” CableCard will likely complement rather than replace these newer devices.
