Hardball 11/23/09: Verizon Will not be Impressed by Ciena’s Big Risk

November 23, 2009

Ciena Beats NSN to Buy Nortel's MEN | www.lightreading.com

A company’s financial position is one of the key determinants in using a supplier. Verizon may now think twice before deploying Ciena’s CN 4200 in a big way. The RBOC’s local group consistently hated dealing with Nortel.

Motorola – Coming back from the Dead?

November 22, 2009

Motorola Explores Breaking Itself Up | online.wsj.com

Restructuring is one of those professions where almost anything goes and almost anything can happen. Depending on which side of the deal you are on, you are either winning or losing. There is no such thing as a clear win-win. You can rationalize a win-win but it would still be a rationalization.

Hardball 11/22/09: AT&T Keeps Spinning its Wheels

November 22, 2009

AT&T Launches Verizon Counter-Punch Ad | seekingalpha.com

The source article offers a good rebuttal to the new AT&T advertisement. Of course, it is like shooting fish in a barrel. The arrogance – that it is the great AT&T and one should believe everything it says – is palpable.

Hardball 11/21/09: Calix’s IPO in Order to Buy Cyan?

November 21, 2009

Calix Files IPO. Will Cyan Be Mike Hatfield's Next Big Hit? | www.businessweek.com

In a 2005 BusinessWeek article, Calix’ CEO was quoted as saying: "The only thing that would cause me to go public is if we wanted to go do an acquisition.  I don't know why else I'd do it." It was clear to us earlier this year that he had evidently not changed his stance in justifying an IPO.

Hardball 11/20/09/13:00 GMT: NSN Likely for NT’s Optical Assets– Infinera Entry?

November 20, 2009

One at a time, please: Nortel delays one auction because of another | localtechwire.com

Nokia Siemens Networks desperately needs to establish a sizable public network presence in North America. Even if Ericsson places a bid, NSN appears to be the favorite to get Nortel’s optical assets. There has been speculation about Infinera entering the fray.

Hardball 11/19/09: Kiss of Death for Clearwire?

November 19, 2009

Clearwire: 'Google Believes in Us' | www.unstrung.com

Google’s lack of investment in the last round speaks volumes. As we have said in the past, no company does as much agonizing cost analysis as the search engine provider. We still believe that if Clearwire does survive, it will be with a far less ambitious, targeted metro approach.

Network and Tower Operations Center (NTOC) – An Optimizer for Network Opex

November 19, 2009

The Operations of Telecom Networks and Data Centers Need a Paradigm Shift to Become Green, Reduce Global Warming and Optimize Total Cost of Operations (TCO) | councils.glgroup.com

Telecom network operations are most opex intensive. Some innovative steps taken to optimize these costs are to share network infrastructure between multiple operators and managed services of network operations. However, with the emergence of tower companies who create and maintain the passive infrastructure in which even active network elements reside, there is a possibility of achieving greater synergy for the NOC and field operations thereby further reducing the costs.

Hardball 11/18/09: One Last Kick in Pants from WV to VZ Before Parting

November 18, 2009

West Virginia protests Frontier's Verizon acquisition | www.fiercetelecom.com

The gloves are coming off one final time between Verizon and West Virginia.  The state is probably going to be so relieved to get Verizon out that it will likely play ball with Frontier.  It would hardly be an exaggeration to say that the relationship over the years between the two parties has been acrimonious.

Hardball 11/17/09: AT&T's Version of Keystone Cops

November 17, 2009

AT&T Rebuts Verizon Ads, Again | blogs.wsj.com

Nothing illustrates more the state of disarray at AT&T than this bungled attempt to dispute Verizon Wireless’ claims. AT&T apparently even has trouble settling on a unified public relations/marketing response. The service provider just did not want the world to know about the disparity in 3G coverage between the two carriers.

Hardball 11/16/09: Infinera Lobs Up Some More Softballs

November 16, 2009

Infinera Named Second Fastest-Growing Tech Company in North America | money.cnn.com

Infinera’s statements continue to make it very easy to hit them out of the park. It would be much better off if it was really forthcoming about its business. While there are some executives that have appeared to have been truly kept in the dark on the company’s execution, it is the high-level people that know better that have been the most disappointing in their responses.
