Los Angeles -- Gemstar-TV Guide International, a maker of e-book devices
and provider of electronic program guides for digital television, will
likely close its e-book division to conserve cash, Bloomberg News
reported. Gemstar CEO Jeff Shell told an investor conference the company
has hired investment bankers to help it sell or find partners for the
struggling unit, but will most likely close the division. Separately, Los
Angeles-based Gemstar said on Tuesday that it has integrated Atlanta-based
N2 Broadband's cable TV video-on-demand platform with its TV Guide
Interactive electronic program guide, which the company said reaches more
than 10 million households in North America.
