October 7, 2009

Analysis by:David Croslin, Chief Executive Officer,

Analysis of:Google refines search results to counter Microsoft | www.businessweek.com

Microsoft's new search engine Bing is far more than a new way to categorize results. Google is trying to match with categorization effects, but this is far short of Bing's potential, especially when Microsoft will soon control close to 30% of the US Market.

Apple iPhone 3G 3.0 MMS Service Expands AT&T Network Crunch

October 4, 2009

Analysis by:David Croslin, Chief Executive Officer,

Analysis of:Customers sue AT&T, Apple over iPhone glitch | www.startribune.com

We may never know the full details of the problems really were in the iPhone 3G that caused problems with MMS. ATT is 'happy' with the new update. Consumers still have many problems and now lawsuits are flying. The issue goes much deeper than the iPhone or a particular software load. AT&T's network, along with its competitor's networks, are not ready for the new services paradigm. Even the vaunted LTE/4G network evolution will not eliminate the causes.

October 4, 2009

Analysis by:David Croslin, Chief Executive Officer,

Analysis of:Cisco Steps Up Rivalry With H-P | online.wsj.com

Many make the assumption that Cisco is buying Tandberg (TAA.OL) to help improve sales of Cisco equipment. That is the smallest part of the equation. The real battle for the dollars of enterprise services is creating huge opportunities for startups and smaller competitors.
