Weak Execution Responsible For Weak Palm Pre Sales?

September 28, 2009

Palm Raising Cash Amid Losses, Weak Pre Sales | www.wirelessweek.com

After much hope and hype, the Palm Pre ranked 10th in Gartner’s Q2 2009 smartphone share, and was simply lumped in the “other” category – ouch. Yes, the Palm Pre really needs another service provider partner besides Sprint  – preferably Verizon. But even if that happens, there’s something else they must address.

JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending

September 26, 2009

How to Stop a Credit Card Payment Increase | www.mainstreet.com

During the last major financial meltdown or depression, JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending by laying down the gauntlet to his peers, single handedly stimulated the economy. He knew that the severe times dictated new and severe lending techniques. I believe there is going to be an even LARGER backlash to Chase and American Express and other credit card lending institutions, that continue in the business of credit card lending, and continue alienating the high FICO borrowers.

For Studios and YouTube, Love = Money

September 23, 2009

YouTube Explores Renting Movies Online | www.businessweek.com

Hollywood Studios want an online distribution model that works for them. One that values and respects premium content, monetizes it, protects the content owners, and increases demand.  Beyond that they aren’t that particular. If You Tube can deliver that, then they are their friend. If YouTube threatens that, then they aren't.

Amazon Branded Accessories Should be a No Brainer For Buyers

September 22, 2009

Amazon starts own consumer electronics brand | www.videobusiness.com

Amazon's house brand of CE accessories should translate into incremental revenue and profit and higher customer satisfaction.  Having the right accessories from the moment consumers set up their electronics, backed by a retailer they trust, in packaging that's very easy to open (don't underestimate the aggravation factor traditional accessory packaging causes), at great value, is all good for Amazon and their customers.
