This is the final installment of my three-part series covering this year's Consumer Electronics Show, so this week let's focus on the future. There are only a few companies I see as having the breadth to succeed in the battle for the digital home, among them HP and Sony. HP stands out slightly ahead...
Delivering products that are faster, cheaper, and more reliable is a common goal among technology vendors. That desire has lead wireless LAN suppliers to develop a new networking technique dubbed MIMO, or multiple input, multiple output, that promises to boost throughput and increase coverage areas...
The most pronounced vendor battle we saw this past year was the battle between Microsoft and the open-source community. This one was particularly strange to watch because it seemed that both sides were doing more to help, rather than hurt, the other. Almost every time a large number of open-source ...
Leading up to this holiday gift-buying season, the home has become a high-tech focal point. Individuals can now collect content on digital cameras, televisions, and stereos and then send it to various computers via wireless LANs. "Wireless enabled devices are on many shoppers' wish list this holiday...
We got the bad news out of the way last week when I highlighted four companies I see as likely to go into decline next year. This time let's focus on the major technology trends coming in 2006 and point to some companies you may not have heard of that should benefit from these trends, both corporat...

The first was the Sony rootkit fiasco, which may have changed the software arena forever. The second was the acquisition by Cisco of Scientific-Atlanta, in what was li...
Juniper Networks today made three announcements about new product enhancements and the companies that have deployed them. But behind the product hype, the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based hardware maker has quietly stepped into the midst of one of last summer's hottest technology controversies. Technology ne...
Skype has been making some new friends since it was acquired by eBay last month. The VoIP provider's latest announcement taps Cisco Systems' Linksys division. The companies announced an agreement this week to market a cordless phone designed to take free Skype Internet phone calling off the computer...
WiFi may see more rapid advancement, thanks to a new coalition determined to accelerate the IEEE 802.11n standard development process. Twenty seven WiFi industry leaders banded together this week under the name Enhanced Wireless Consortium (EWC). These diverse companies have one common goal: to spee...
In the latest in a long string of mergers and acquisitions in the security segment, Check Point Software Technologies yesterday said it signed a definitive agreement to acquire Sourcefire for about US$225 million in cash and stock. Sourcefire is the developer behind Snort, an open-source intrusion p...
In the Wireless LAN (WLAN) market, thin is in. Faced with declining unit growth and falling product prices in the consumer market, vendors have focused on boosting their sales to enterprises. While this strategy has merit, it has meant that they have had to redesign their wares. Consumers are conten...
Just months after its US$250 million acquisition of Topspin, Cisco Systems today announced the first fruit of the merger's labors: technology that will help customers power their on-demand computing systems. Cisco said the latest elements of its Data Center Networking Architecture portfolio, InfiniB...
Internet backbone provider 3Com announced a new voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) applications package aimed at connecting remote workers more efficiently and effectively through "converged communication networks." The company, which made the announcement at the VoiceCon conference in San Diego th...
Intel and Cisco announced this week they would bolster wireless local area networks (LANS) and the use of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) by businesses with a new wireless suite. The two companies said they had jointly produced a new set of features that pull together Cisco's wireless infrastruc...
