The rise of Microsoft's view on Mobile Web at Vodafone.T

Analysis by:Ian Wood, Partner,

Analysis of:Vodafone updates internet portal services with Vodafone 360 | www.telecompaper.com

The launch of Vodafone360 is the latest indicator of Peter Knook's influence on Vodafone since his joining from Microsoft 18 months ago. Vodafone Internet Services are now trying to present a consumer face for Vodafone that sees it capable of utilising investment in 3G and 3.5G Mobile Broadband.The interesting element is that this will be the first two handsets in Europe that use the LiMo standard. One from Samsung and one from Huawei.

Has anyone bid yet?

July 7, 2009

Analysis by:Ian Wood, Partner,

Analysis of:Orange and even O2 may bid against Vodafone for T-Mobile UK | www.rethink-wireless.com

Whilst the UK has two more mobile networks than it needs the big three all know that they would be helping it's closest rivals in removing the two small players. If T-Mobile were to be sold to a rival the actions of the Regulator are not know at this time but some action is expected. The best case is that the new owner would be expected to return the 3G license and spectrum the worse is that both 2 & 3G spectrum is handed over. Has T-Mobile put the business up for sale? The present book value for the business is some €3B following the write down at the start of the year. Since that time T-Mobile has seen a decline in revenues in the UK and a loss of business caused by the fact that they have been working without a CEO or CMO and so have been following the German strategy. This has further lowered the value of the business.

Alphabet Soup: The ABCs of LED Backlighting for Consumer LCD TVs and Monitors

June 15, 2009

Analysis by:Jon Adams, Director, Business Development,

Analysis of:What’s an LED TV? | gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com

While LED (light emitting diode) technology is used in a number of ways in displays, the overwhelmingly common use is in backlighting of consumer LCD displays. LED backlighting provides a more power-efficient method for providing the backlight illumination that is needed to see the image created by LCD displays. LED backlighting is more power-efficient (environmentally greener), has the ability to improve dramatically the perceived performance of LCD displays, is less likely to fail catastrophically unlike traditional cold-cathode fluorescent (CCFL) backlighting, and has the added green benefit of reducing the amount of hazardous materials that are used in manufacture.
