Just like 10 years ago, and then again five years ago, the technology industry is changing. That means companies are enjoying new opportunities and wrestling with new challenges. Only some will win. I'll offer my perspective as an analyst on who is winning, who is losing and why. I believe you will find this column both interesting and valuable ...
"That does not even qualify as a slap on the wrist," independent telecom analyst Jeff Kagan told TechNewsWorld. "It is chump change, at best." A Half-Hearted Response ...
The Lumia may be AT&T's biggest wireless handset launch since the iPhone. This is a big gamble on AT&T's part. If successful, it could stand tall. It could help reboot Nokia and Microsoft in the wireless business. If unsuccessful then AT&T will have egg on its face. Why take the risk? ...

Books and e-books are becoming the No. 1 sales and marketing tool for many small and mid-sized businesses. Large companies have successfully used them for years, but they were much more expensive and took much longer to produce. Now print on demand and e-books are transforming the space, allowing every company the same opportunity. ...
Research In Motion has said it will offer app makers a prototype of the next smartphone in the BlackBerry 10 line at an upcoming conference in May. Good news, but is it too little, too late? The phone will not be ready to roll into the market till late 2012. ...
"At this point, this is something that we don't know if it is just AT&T or other carriers as well," Jeff Kagan, telecommunications analyst told the E-Commerce Times. Making the Government's Case...
We have watched the wireless industry grow rapidly and change over the last decade. As we now know, competitors in the industry have suddenly been backed into a corner with limits to wireless data spectrum and growth. This is a growing problem and a real challenge that both Verizon Wireless and AT&T have to face. A change in thinking is required to solve this.
"Technology will get to the point where it will be implanted into your skin, in your ear or on your wrist," said telecommunications analyst Jeff Kagan. "This will change the way we interact with our devices and we won't have to carry them. But that's still several years down the road." ...
Despite its optimistic talk, with Sprint bowing out, LightSquared is out of the game for the moment, tech analyst Jeff Kagan told the E-Commerce Times. Sprint was to have provided a much-needed infusion of capital, he noted.
Comcast has grown from a small cable television company in the 1990s to the largest conglomerate in the space, all thanks to Brian Roberts and his father Ralph Roberts. It was a real bootstrapping, entrepreneurial, family-run company that did many great things over the years and helped to transform the industry. ...
"This is LightSquared's last-ditch attempt," said telecommunication analyst Jeff Kagan. "Whether it is successful or not is another thing, but I don't expect it to be." Without the spectrum, LightSquared could find itself cornered, but for companies like Sprint Nextel, even a ...
Microsoft has also been rumored to be considering such a move, independent tech analyst Jeff Kagan told the E-Commerce Times. "And who knows who else? Yahoo possibly and Apple almost definitely." A Reinvention of the TV Business ...
There are currently two different realities we have to wrestle with if we are a customer of either AT&T or Verizon Wireless. Walk into any of their wireless stores, and they will happily tell you everything the wonderful and futuristic 4G phones can do. They'll sweep you off your feet with excitement, and you'll buy, buy, buy. ...
"This is the problem with new technology, it opens new doors that don't have legislation," telecommunications analyst Jeff Kagan told TechNewsWorld. "Until there is legislation, bad things will happen." However, this could bring attention where attention is needed....
In short, both sides are making powerful cases, which makes it hard to determine not only which point of view is correct, but also how this policy debate will eventually unfold, independent tech analyst Jeff Kagan told the E-Commerce Times. "Personally, I can see both sides ...
I am writing a book that I may call "CEOs on the Future of Communications." The reason I'm telling this to you now is to invite you to participate in the process of writing it. ...
LightSquared didn't come off looking good from this episode, but it is hard to know what else Ahuja could have done, telecom analyst Jeff Kagan told the E-Commerce Times. "LightSquared has been battling an array of forces that would have done in a less nimble company already,...
"This could be the big bang that changes the TV industry as we know it," Jeff Kagan, an independent tech analyst, told TechNewsWorld It could be similar to the big bang Apple created in the music and smartphone industries with the launch of the iPod and iPhone, he speculated.
"T-Mobile didn't jump into the smartphone race along with AT&T, Verizon and Sprint Nextel. They sat it out for years. They finally get it. They finally understand the future is about smartphones," tech analyst and consultant Jeff Kagan told the E-Commerce Times. T-Mobile plan...
