Form or Function?

October 12, 2007

Motorola Back On Track | www.forbes.com

The V3 was something that was a victim to fortune. Motorola built a very sexy looking handset they just forgot to do something with the software.  So you got a large number of users who discover that this is not a Nokia or a Sony Ericsson and you need to read the instruction book. Life is too short for instruction books, and so people became unhappy that this was a phone that just made calls and sent texts.  As an internet device it is a nightmare. Not a great device for networks looking to raise ARPU with data services so limited lifespan. Motorola have been playing with just what OS to run on the handset.  You can get the Q which is using Microsoft as the engine for the Smartphone.  However the latest Smartphone sees them return to UIQ (Symbian) for the software and it does not have a QWERTY keypad and so once again data services will be limited. David Beckham as a Brand is outdated, just as LA Galaxy about bang for buck.

NextWave will it survive?

September 26, 2007

Chipset vendors jostle for position in WiMAX handsets | www.wimaxtrends.com

1. There is a lot of noise about WiMax being 4G technology for mobile devices including cellular phones. While this is probably true Wimax standard is not finalized yet and this fact makes the technology developers a risky companies to invest in. 2. NextWave is spending huge amount of money on technology development ranging from ICs, though the prototype development platforms for both industrial and consumer markets. In addition,  NextWave is buying frequency spectrum all around the world. In my opinion this is very risky strategy because WiMax will be rolled-out in 2009-2010 if not later in some countries but the interest payments on company loans to have to be satisfied in the meantime. 3. In addition, the growth of the company is tremendous. They need more and more people to cover all the activities they are involved in and there is question in my mind of controlling the growth.
