Jini and Rio and F1 Racing Cars..

Just fyi... in a press release today:
"Sun Microsystems Signs Hundreds of New Customers in
Fiscal Third Quarter"
http://www.prnewswire.com/news/index_mail.shtml?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/
story/04-26-2005/0003486464&EDATE=

there is the following mention:

  "Magneti Marelli Holding (Italy) -- Sun designed, for Magneti
   Marelli Racing Department, a new system to manage telemetry data
   for Formula 1 teams in real time, using Java and Jini(TM)/Rio
   technology with the aim of achieving the required performance, to
   support multiple platforms, such as Linux and Windows, and to provide
   high availability and location transparency of components."

You can check out a presentation on this from Eighth Jini
Community Meeting (Dec 2004, London):
   A Jini-based Real-Time Telemetry System for F1 Racing Cars
   http://www.jini.org/nonav/meetings/eighth/J8abstracts.html#Cars

Apparently the racing team has done *very* well this season.
