Nintendo Wii U confirmed for Xmas 2012
Techwatch: Tech News27 Jan 2012 | 5:17 amSome more information has emerged about the Wii U console. And the biggest snippet is the fact that Nintendo’s sequel has been confirmed as launching before the end of 2012. The company has learned “bitter” lessons from the 3DS launch, which failed to make the Christmas launch window and slipped to March, with sales suffering as a result. Hopefully they’ll have learned pricing lessons as well, as the 3DS had too steep a price tag for many when it was first out. The Wii has always been a competitive piece of hardware, of course, but the Wii U boasts higher-end technology… -

27 Jan 2012 | 2:57 amNokia has suffered a large loss in its latest financial results, with the company’s operating profit dropping by €950 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.

The figures are for Q4 2011 market share, and show that the iPad has dropped to 58% from 68% in the final quarter of 2010.

The 40% mark is a figure that, earlier last year, some analysts were predicting Android would only reach in 2014.

Anonymous launches attack against ‘Irish SOPA’
26 Jan 2012 | 2:46 amAnonymous, the collective of internet activists, has struck again with its latest cause – action against copyright legislation in Ireland. Currently, a statutory instrument – a change in law which doesn’t require approval from Parliament – is being pushed through swiftly over in Ireland. And that instrument aims to achieve SOPA-like goals of making it easier for copyright holders to block websites deemed to have violated their intellectual property. There’s currently concern over whether this, like SOPA, is a rather blunt instrument which is overreaching and could be abused…

Exclusive Interview with Obihai Technology about their upcoming Products and Strategies
5 Jan 2012 | 9:11 pmThe OBihai OBi110 and OBi100 were probably the highlight of 2011 for me in the VoIP space.

Mobile Operators wake up, see the Writing on the Wall
27 Dec 2011 | 9:39 amThe more things change, the more they stay the same…Theodore Levitt, in a classic article in 1984, argued that companies often fail because they are myopic – focusing too narrowly on current products and not on customer requirements. Railroads failed, not because the need was filled by others (cars, trucks, airplanes, even telephones), but because it was not filled by the railroads themselves. Railroads defined their industry incorrectly as railroad-oriented instead of transportation-oriented.Quarter century later, mobile operators are yet to learn a thing or two from others’ mistakes. -

Where Has All My Blogging Gone?
31 Dec 2011 | 2:55 pmThere’s been an interesting debate going on about the state of blogging lately. Jeremiah Owyang kicked off the most recent debate when he declared The Golden Age of Blogging Is Over in where he says that at least the tech blogosphere is maturing and changing as the result of a number of factors. The funny thing about blogging is that it’s a new name for something I’ve been doing for 15 years or so: putting content on a website for other people to use and comment on. I am best known for a series of Frequently Asked Questions I wrote about the Check Point… -
Nokia Launching Lumia 710 on T-Mobile USA, Won’t Kickstart WP7 Sales
16 Dec 2011 | 7:45 pmIt’s no secret that a number of outlets are reporting that the Nokia Lumia 710 will launch on T-Mobile USA sometime in January. This phone is one of two devices Nokia has produced with Windows Phone 7 on it (the other being the higher-end Lumia 800), which were initially made available outside the US in November. Being an ex-Nokia employee for nearly 3 years now, and not being among the smartphone reviewing elite that companies regularly send handsets to for view, I haven’t seen this device up close and personal yet. That said I’ve heard and read a number of… -
Accell UltraAV USB 2.0 to HDMI Video and Audio Adapter
10 Dec 2011 | 7:05 pmEvery laptop comes with some method for hooking up to a computer monitor. On PC laptops, it’s a VGA connector. On Macs, it’s whatever version of DisplayPort Apple is using these days. Some might have HDMI ports–heck, phones and tablets certainly do. Getting a computer hooked up to a modern TV is not nearly the ordeal it used to be. My Visio has a VGA plug on it, making it really easy to hook up to any computer. So one wonder why you might need a device like the UltraAV USB 2.0 to HDMI Adapter from Accell? The problem with VGA: it’s… -
Path: Social Networking Gone Micro
9 Dec 2011 | 6:23 pmEvery once in a while, a new app comes along that provides a fresh approach to something. For me, Path is doing this for Social Networking. Instead of encouraging to share with as many as possible, it’s encouraging me to share more to fewer people. According to Path’s website, path is a smart journal that helps you share life with the ones you love. It actually began its life about a year ago as a photo sharing service similar to Instagram with one major limitation: you can only share with a limited number of people. This started out as 50 but was increased to 150. Compare 150… -
My Review of the Amazon Kindle Fire
4 Dec 2011 | 1:23 amI like my iPad 2. I really do. While it’s not perfect, I have a significant investment in the Apple iTunes universe. I could get it with WiFi and 3G. It does most of what I need. In many ways, it is the replacement for my personal computer, even if it does have some restrictions. So, one wonders, why did I decide to spend a couple hundred more dollars and buy a Kindle Fire? Especially for a device like the iPad, is tied to an ecosystem I am not heavily invested in? A number of reasons. First of all, the price tag. $199 is quite compelling. It’s the kind of thing I see more people…

MobileMonday Toronto - Feb. 6 - You There?
27 Jan 2012 | 8:31 amJust a friendly shout-out for this event before I head off to Miami on Monday for the ITExpo. On Monday, Feb. 6, I'll be moderating the "Meet the Analysts" event at MobileMonday Toronto. It's part of a regular series held at the MaRS facility downtown, which is probably Canada's leading business incubator, especially for technology and health sciences startups.This will be a fun panel, as we'll share our views on the outlook for mobility in 2012, with a particular focus on how the financial sector sees this space. Joining me will be buddy Ronald Gruia from my alum Frost & Sullivan, and Mike… -
ITExpo - How Smartphones and Social Media are Re-shaping Call Centers
26 Jan 2012 | 9:42 amGot one more panel to tell you about for next week's ITExpo in sunny Miami. This is the third panel I'll be moderating, and it should be a lot of fun. As consumers, most of us can vouch for less-than-perfect contact center experiences, and our expectations sure are changing with smartphones and social media. Whether you're in the contact center space or just a frustrated customer, you really should come out to our session.Joining me will be fellow Torontonian, Shai Berger of Fonolo, along with Rick McFarland of Voice4Net and Tina Valdez from TeleTech. We'll be presenting on Wednesday at 1:30,… -
Using UC to Re-invent the Channel
25 Jan 2012 | 10:06 amBusy week here - and will be even busier next week at ITExpo. Well, the title of this post is self-explanatory. Earlier this month, we did a UCStrategies podcast about how the channel is evolving to support UC. Lots to talk about there, but each of us only gets to speak for a minute or two. I wanted to expand on my ideas, and have done that in my latest posting on the UCStrategies portal. It's running now, and I hope you read it - I think there's a lot opportunity here for VARs and SIs to add new forms of value to UC that businesses will really like. -
ITExpo Miami Preview #2: Building the UC Business Case
25 Jan 2012 | 8:26 amShow time, go time. A week from today, TMC's ITExpo in Miami gets underway with the full program. Tuesday is a pre-con day, but I'll be there as part of the team for TMC's Editors Day.I'm moderating 3 panels, and this is a shout-out for the first one on Wednesday. As you probably know, UC keeps me pretty busy, and this panel speaks to business case issues. Sure, we'll touch on ROI vs. TCO, but there's lots more to explore, so come on out and join us. Alongside me will be fellow analyst Irwin Lazar from Nemertes, and two vendors - Nancy Maluso from Sonus Networks, and Chris Hasenauer from… -
12 Ways of Finding Jon Arnold
25 Jan 2012 | 7:07 amWe're all busy, and we all seem to lead multiple lives these days - some real, some (or more) virtual. Being an independent analyst, I wear many hats and work in a variety of ways/places to make a living.I don't expect you to be up on everything I do, but am pretty sure people I work with only follow me selectively - nothing wrong with that. Since I wear the Marketing and PR hats around here, every now and then I need to make sure my followers get a bigger picture update. One reason for doing this now is the fact that both my blog and website trended upward in traffic last year, and have been…

Symantec - Disable pcAnywhere Now! Who the Heck Still uses it?
27 Jan 2012 | 8:47 amSymantec suspected in 2006 that its network had been breached, but when Anonymous started talking publicly about Symantec source code it confirmed their suspicions. According to Wired: The company surprised the public last week when it disclosed that hackers had obtained source code for its pcAnywhere software and other products, and that the code had likely been stolen in a six-year-old breach that Symantec had never disclosed. Symantec said in its announcement that users should disable pcAnywhere until the company had time to update the software to ensure that hackers are unable to exploit… -
Spirit Airlines Claims Government Forcing them to Hide Taxes in Fares
24 Jan 2012 | 4:03 pmCheck out this email I got from Spirit Airlines discussing how our U.S. government wants to HIDE government taxes from the American people. Most transparent Administration ever! NOT! Seriously? How can we as a republic support or oppose a particular political party or candidate if we cannot see the policies they've enacted? Hiding taxes is certainly one way to avoid the ire of the American voter! Here's the full body text of the email: WARNING: New government regulations require us to HIDE taxes in your fares. This is not consumer-friendly or in your best interest. It's wrong and you… -
Pumped for StartupCamp5's Fast-paced Startup Pitches
24 Jan 2012 | 12:46 pmI'm headed out to ITEXPO East, taking place next week from January 31 through February 3, at the Miami Beach Convention Center, in Miami, Florida. One of the the items of my must-see list is StartupCamp5 Comm Edition, collocated with ITEXPO East. I'm pretty pumped to see this, especially since at StartupCamp4, Internet / Ethernet legend Bob Metcalfe gave a phenomenal keynote, which was very well received. You can see his keynote here:During the keynote Bob had some kind words to say about Apple's Steve Jobs, before Steve Jobs passed. It was obvious from Bob's emotions that he knew his friend… -
Lync Federation Tool Makes it Easy to Find Lync-enabled Business Partners
23 Jan 2012 | 3:08 pmWho wouldn't want to join the Federation? No, not the United Federation of Planets, commonly referred as the Federation, though it would be cool to play on the Star Trek Enterprise's holodeck. No, we're talking Lync Federation here. Matt Landis has a cool WCF Tool (Who Can Federate) that will scan through your Outlook contacts and tell you which contacts have public Microsoft Lync or OCS federation enabled. The utility works simply by checking for a specific Lync DNS SRV record for each domain name in your Outlook contacts.You don't even need Lync installed to try this tool. Companies… -

Try Something New Today!
9 Jan 2012 | 9:19 amI’m in Las Vegas for CES. I’ve been coming here for industry events for 25 years now. Yesterday, however, I did something I had never done in all that time. I rented a car, and drove out of the city to see what else Nevada had to offer besides gambling, hotels, and shows. An hours drive north led me to the Valley of Fire State Park, where I took in the sunset, and the rising of the moon over Lake Mead to the east. It was stunning. I’ll go back there again, just to see the rock formations along the 20 mile scenic route through the park. So, what does that have to do with… -
Five Killer Travel Apps for BlackBerry Users
7 Jan 2012 | 8:16 amAnyone who follows my 4Square updates on Twitter will know that I travel a lot. This week it was a quick jaunt to Waterloo. Next week, I’ll be in Las Vegas for CES 2012.

With that in mind, here are the killer travel apps I use on BlackBerry. The big Kahuna is BlackBerry Travel. I’ve used other apps in the past, on other mobile devices, but BlackBerry Travel blows them all away. When you first book a… -
Happy New Year!
6 Jan 2012 | 5:01 pmIt’s been kind of a crazy 2011. As a result of that, this space has been neglected. Truth be told, it hasn’t been just due to being busy, though. It has also been due to figuring out the relationship of Saunderslog.com to my new role at RIM. Last week, Andy Abramson wrote that there used to be more bloggers. In the early days of the VoIP industry, there was definitely a cabal of sorts – a crew of folks who wrote steadily about stuff that mattered. Often opinionated, often right, sometimes wrong, and always entertaining. Andy, you’re right. We… -
What’s in a name? Branding your product.
31 Oct 2011 | 6:19 amI stood at the cash at the local Tim Horton’s (a Canadian doughnut chain), and ordered a “combo” – sandwich, coffee, and a doughnut. “And which baked good would you like with your lunch, sir?” Baked good. Wow! Questioned, he explained that “baked goods” just seemed an easier and shorter description than enumerating all the possible confections I could order in place of the doughnut with my lunch. Tim’s sells doughnuts, and plenty of them. But they also sell other (ahem) “baked goods” such as croissants, pastries, muffins and cookies. You see, over… -
Raising a Glass to Steve Jobs –-1955-2011
5 Oct 2011 | 8:49 pmI’ve just been sitting and chatting with my parents on the phone. Told them that the first computer I ever laid eyes on was an Apple II. It was at the CompuMart store at the corner of Roosevelt and Byron in 1978. We used to head down there after school. The owner, a tolerant guy who didn’t mind a few geeky boys in his store, would let us laboriously type code from the latest issue of Byte Magazine into the one Apple II he had in the shop. And then we’d sit back, type “Run”, and magic would happen. We loved the Apple II because it had a vector graphics card, unlike the Commodore…

The Voxies: The Best in VoIP in 2011
3 Jan 2012 | 9:52 pmIt seems hard to believe that only a couple of years ago, some industry insiders were debating whether VoIP was dead. In some ways, the pessimists had a point: There hadn't been anything exciting introduced to IP calling for a long while. Sure, there were new ways to make VoIP calls using the iPhone and other mobile devices. But for the most part, VoIP in 2010 was pretty much what it had been in 2004. The industry came back to life in a big way in 2011. Newly introduced hardware set lofty new standards in analog telephone devices and IP phones. Talented engineers broke free of the restrictive… -

Is $4 million for a Super Bowl commercial worth it?
26 Jan 2012 | 3:10 pmI saw this interesting chart today on the average price of a Super Bowl ad over time. This year’s matchup between the Giants and Patriots is fetching a whopping $4 million for a 30 second spot. That’s more than many companies spend on advertising (or anything for that matter!) in an entire year. It got me thinking: how do you measure the impact of a Super Bowl ad? How do you track if it actually generates leads into your business? Granted for many consumer products companies it’s more about building brand awareness than an immediate call to action, but the point remains. Tony Hsieh, CEO… -

Build Relationships and Track Ads Like My Grandpa
20 Jan 2012 | 8:15 amWhen I was a kid, my grandpa and dad owned a publishing business called Nelson-Hall. In its heyday, Nelson-Hall was a leading publisher of social science textbooks and general readership books on subjects like locksmithing, jujitsu, and world disasters (my favorite book originally published by Nelson-Hall was entitled Darkest Hours by Jay Robert Nash). Nelson-Hall was where I learned how to run a business; from designing book covers to operating a warehouse, from marketing new titles to processing invoices. Surprisingly, Nelson-Hall was where I learned about call tracking. My grandpa was… -

RIM and BlackBerry: Benchmarks for Progress

Vidtel MeetMe: A First Glimpse at Group Video Conferencing Interoperability
19 Jan 2012 | 8:39 amIf there was one “Year Of” category in 2011, it would be the emergence of group video conferencing offerings. Skype started off the year by announcing the release of Skype Group Video Calling – up to ten participants using Skype video and audio technology with a cost of $8.99 per month (or lower on 3- and 12-month subscriptions that include Live Chat and U.S./Canada SkypeOut). Meantime vendors such as Cisco, Polycomm, InFocus and LifeSize (a Logitech company) have evolved their video conferencing offerings with the result that a business can end up with a “closed” service that… -
Skype for TV: CES 2012 Update
16 Jan 2012 | 8:16 amTwo years ago at CES 2010 Skype announced Skype for TV with two partners (Samsung and LG). It was only available on very high end Internet-enabled TV sets and required vendor-specific webcams. Effectively the cost of adoption was over $1,500. CES 2011 saw an expansion of the number of TV set vendors (Panasonic, Toshiba, Sony, Vizio) and the support of Skype for TV on BluRay DVD players from Panasonic and Sony, bringing the cost of adoption down to about $400 for the player and a supporting webcam. One other complication was that all these offerings required a webcam that was specifically… -
