FEATURED BLOG
- Consumers First For Windows Phone 7, Businesses Later
By Ed Hansberry
It doesn't take a genius to see that Microsoft designed Windows Phone 7 to initially appeal to consumers, from the finger friendly user interface to the hardware specs that resemble the form factor made popular by the iPhone over three years ago. It doesn't mean that business needs are off the radar though.

- Striving For A Higher Quality Application Store
By Ed Hansberry
Apple is the undisputed king of apps in its online store for the iPhone with the App Store, at least when it comes to the number of apps for sale. RIM isn't interested in competing at that level. Will shooting for a higher quality selection make an online market more popular than one with a bewildering selection?

- Blackberry Playbook Tablet Announced
By Ed Hansberry
RIM announced their new tablet, the Blackberry Playbook, which ironically doesn't run the Blackberry operating system. Going up against the iPad is going to be tough enough. Can they do it with an entirely new operating system that will need developers to support it?

- Nokia's Woes Mount
By Ed Hansberry
Nokia has been in the news a lot this week and little of it is good. The company has a new CEO and is obviously trying to turn things around, but will it be successful?
http://links.techwebnewsletters.com/ctt?kn=27&m=35839024&r=MTM4NTY5MzE2NgS2&b=2&j=ODMxNjA4MjUS1&mt=1&rt=0

- Windows Phone To Take Third Spot By 2012
By Ed Hansberry
Right now the smartphone race has two key players for consumers, iOS and Android. Add the enterprise and business customer to the mix and Blackberry shows up as well. Windows Phone 7 hasn't even launched yet, but at lest one analyst thinks that within two years, it will be third in the field.

- AT&T Has Satellite Based Smartphone
By Ed Hansberry
Wow. It is like 1999 all over again. In 1999 satellite phones were all the rage because they were going to work when every other cell phone died as a result of Y2K. The only thing that died were satellite phones for consumers. Flash forward over a decade later and AT&T is ready to give it another go.

- Are The Stars Aligning For Verizon iPhone Launch?
By Ed Hansberry
We've been hearing rumors of an iPhone on the Verizon network for some time, but the expected dates seem to come and go with no news. The latest rumor is early 2011 and we keep getting additional information that makes that seem more credible than any previous rumor.

- Android Growth Continues, Others Lose Share
By Ed Hansberry
Android is showing no signs of slowing down. For the three months ended July 31, Android is the only smartphone platform to show growth. Palm remained flat, while Apple, Microsoft and RIM all saw declines.

The server market is changing rapidly, forced into a technological transition by several broad and simultaneously emerging trends: the ongoing push toward consolidation, the business imperative to rein in out-of-control power and cooling costs, and the rise of cloud computing.

In this report, we look into the technological advances driving the server market forward, as well as the server strategies of Dell, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Oracle-Sun, Cisco, and other vendors.
