It could be a thing that's installed, pre-installed on a Spark device.

It could be a thing that's part of the OS and updated with Windows Update and administrative permissions and all of this other stuff.

It could be a whole range of things.

Nobody knows yet, in terms of public announcing, how they're going to do that.

Are they going to be a thunking layer?

Lots of stuff could happen there.

Is it an App Store app?

Is it an OS component?

Nobody has any idea.
