"Google is actively looking for other types of businesses to be involved in besides search and advertising," Charles King, principal analyst with Pund-IT, told TechNewsWorld "Given the expectation that the global market for glucose testing is going to be in excess of (US)$10 b...
Microsoft "will be better served by a single, well-executed event rather than the continuing cuts companies like HP have instituted," Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT, told the E-Commerce Times Customers are not likely to be concerned with or invested in layoffs, bec...
There's no shortage of utopian visions in the IT industry, but the journey to cloud computing that some folks espouse makes the trip to Shangri-La look like a simple walk in the park. Why so? Because, like it or not, even in the best circumstances businesses must continue to support legacy applications and systems while they are adopting next-gen technologies.
"At one level, the company's request seems quite reasonable," Charles King, principal at Pund-IT, told the E-Commerce Times. "After all, hobbyists can and do operate drones in unrestricted airspace, so why can't Amazon? But at the same time, the company's approach to drones i...
Its rivalry with Apple may be one reason Amazon is resisting the FTC, theorized Charles King, principal of Pund-IT. "The FTC is basically saying that the Amazon situation is analogous to Apple's, and it wants it to institute similar controls. Amazon, though, prides itself on ...
Using partial or flexible employment to put currently underemployed or unemployed college grads to work to gain experience, as British entrepreneur Sir Richard Branson has done with Virgin Startup, "is a decent approach," said Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT Howeve...
A confluence of recent events has gotten me thinking about laptops. First, IDC and Gartner released PC market surveys that suggest a significant slowing in the declines plaguing PC sales for the past few years. Then last week, due to "stronger than expected demand for business PCs," Intel said it was raising Q2 and full-year revenue and gross margin expectations.
"If cramming is really as widespread as the FTC has alleged, why did [it] single out for punishment a smaller vendor that has already voluntarily taken corrective action?" asked Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT T-Mobile is leading the way in efforts to address restit...
"Basically, the company was looking for a very broad ruling that would have qualified any and all unprotected or unencrypted wireless transmissions as being 'public' whether or not people intended them to be received or collected," Charles King, principal at Pund-IT, told the E-Commerce Times.
SAP's recent Sapphire NOW user and partner conference in Orlando was a love fest for the company's HANA in-memory database technology. SAP has made it quite clear that HANA is far more than an innovative solution for Big Data, analytics and business intelligence workloads. ...
"While Uber has been quite successful in exploiting technologies like GPS, I wonder whether replacing trained, dedicated cab drivers with nonprofessionals is all that wise," Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT, told TechNewsWorld. "A GPS-using Uber contractor might be able to find his or her way to a destination as -- or nearly as -- effectively as a taxi driver, but in critical situations like heavy traffic or traveling at high speeds, would you rather have an unregulated part-timer or an experienced driver behind the wheel?"...
"To a certain extent, Microsoft Dynamics CRM has been something of a dud to date," Charles King, principal of Pund-IT, told CRM Buyer. It is not necessarily a CRM-specific problem, he added....
"The potential of the reported Google project would be to help ensure that the next generation of unserved Internet users comes online, said Charles King, principal at Pund-IT. "The fact is that often due to political folly and economic challenges, potential online access suf...
This mobile ideal probably was not the driving force behind Salesforce.com's and Microsoft's partnership, speculated Charles King, principal with Pund-IT. "If I had to guess, the immediate factor was the departure of Steve Ballmer, and the long-brewing reason was the recogni...
Microsoft has gotten something of a bad rap for its hardware, and in the case of the Surface, it isn't deserved, Charles King, principal analyst with Pund-IT, told TechNewsWorld. "Obviously, the Surface has not performed as well as Microsoft had hoped it would," he said.
"The direct sales model has worked well in the homogeneous China market, but expanding into other localities will be challenging -- especially in highly competitive markets like the U.S. and Europe where third party distributors and retailers drive a high degree of brand recognition and sales," said Charles King, principal at Pund-IT.
"Wheeler's original proposal was clearly in the comfort zone of telcos to the point that many thought he was acting as little more than their shill," Charles King, principal at Pund-IT, told the E-Commerce Times. "Wheeler may be setting his eye on life after the FCC, but acti...
"Qualcomm has done very well in smartphones but is struggling in the tablet market, so making what amounts to a fresh start could be good for both companies," said Charles King, principal at Pund-IT. "However, I don't expect the partnership to significantly benefit either one...
EMC World -- the company's annual customer, user and partner conference -- kicks off this week in Las Vegas. So it seems like a good time to compare and contrast EMC's current position in the marketplace to its competitors' positions -- and even to its own history. In fact, those points were clarified in its recent Q1 2014 earnings call ...
"Pushing a new tape format seems like a fool's errand," Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT, told TechNewsWorld Sony could make a major impact on the market if it adapted this new technology for the LTO standard, he pointed out....
