Beyond Blue (BusinessWeek Online)

Beyond Blue (BusinessWeek Online) 04/08/2005 06:16 PM
BusinessWeek Online - It was over a lunch in Cincinnati two years ago that IBM Chief Executive Samuel J. Palmisano got his first inkling of Big Blue's next act. Palmisano was talking business with A.G. Lafley, CEO of Procter & Gamble Co. , one of IBM's big customers. At one point, Lafley asked Palmisano to estimate how many of P&G's 100,000 employees it truly needed to keep on its payroll. When Palmisano didn't venture a guess, Lafley stunned him by saying that P&G might be able to get by with only a quarter of its workforce. ...

Mating Calls (BusinessWeek Online) 08/06/2004 09:38 AM
BusinessWeek Online - Cell phones are indispensable when you're on the road. But back in the office, they mostly get in the way. They ring at odd times, and if you use a headset with your office phone, they're awkward to answer. They certainly do nothing to improve your efficiency. The best solution would be to make your cell phone and land line work together better instead of competing for your attention. I've been looking at three different types of gadgets that let you do just that. The caveat: You'll need particular phones or wireless providers to use them. ...

AT&T Wireless: Bidding War, Anyone?
(BusinessWeek Online) 01/23/2004 05:21 PM
BusinessWeek Online - AT&T Wireless Services Inc. (NYSE:AWE - News) is anything but an industry darling. Dogged by mediocre customer-service ratings, the third largest of six national cellular service providers has seen subscriber growth slow to a snail's pace. The stock has plummeted 70% in four years -- though it has rebounded in recent months thanks to strong cash flow and takeover speculation. The latest financials are weak, too: On Jan. 22, the Seattle company reported a net loss of $84 million for the fourth quarter, on revenues of $3.9 billion.

BusinessWeek Online - Speedy wireless Net connections aren't just for urban cafes anymore. Long-nelected rural towns and even recreational-vehicle parks are now surfing the Web on the Wi-Fi wave, thanks to new enhancements in the technology. Take the nearly 60,000 citizens of Rio Rancho, N.M., who on June 26 gained access to the Net from their homes, their cars, nearby parks -- virtually anywhere around town. No need for DSL or cable-modem service in Rio Rancho, a hamlet that was the 81st of 83 nationwide markets to get broadband from its local cable operator.

BusinessWeek Online - Everybody knows that China is the world's next economic superpower. Each year, it gets billions and billions of dollars in foreign investment, powering its booming economy. The Middle Kingdom has more cell-phone users than anywhere else on the planet, and soon it will be tops among Net surfers, too. American consumers can't get enough of the low-cost TVs, DVD players, mobile phones, computers, and other gizmos that come out of China's factories.

Commentary: Is Outsourcing On The Outs?
(BusinessWeek Online) 09/24/2004 04:12 PM
BusinessWeek Online - The announcement sent ripples of anxiety through the tech world. On Sept. 15, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. said that it was terminating a seven-year, $5 billion technology-outsourcing deal with IBM. For many, it's an article of faith that corporations will gradually hand off ever more of their technology operations to big service providers such as IBM, Accenture , and Electronic Data Systems . Yet here was the nation's second-largest bank taking its tech back because it was strategically too important to be left to an outsider. ...

BusinessWeek Online - Telecommunications deals in Europe are popping up faster than spring flowers. Mobile giant Vodafone Group PLC shelled out $4.4 billion in mid-March to grab wireless companies in Romania and the Czech Republic. Barely two weeks later, the Czech Republic accepted a separate $3.5 billion bid for 51% of fixed-line and mobile operator Cesky Telecom from Spain's Telefonica, which snatched the company away from the expected winner, Swisscom . Now all eyes are on potentially one of the largest European acquisitions of the year -- the battle for Italy's No. ...

But the 44-year-old father of two has a dream: When he hits his 50s, he'll cash in his 40,000 Sun stock options and become a full-time minister. Stock options "are a long- term incentive" to stick with Sun, he says.

BusinessWeek Online - Gertrude Boyle, affectionately known as "Gert," is not your typical entrepreneur -- let alone company chairman. She had no interest in business and was rather content raising her three children while her husband ran the family business -- a small outdoor-clothing concern for hunters, skiers, and fishermen called Columbia Sportswear , founded by her father in 1938. But her husband, Neil Boyle, died suddenly of a heart attack in 1970, leaving his wife and three children a growing enterprise saddled with debt.

Now, Wall Street wants you to save an appetite for the initial public offering coming soon from a familiar name: Domino's Pizza.

The movie, about dancers from the mean streets of Los Angeles, was streamed wirelessly to a mountaintop ski lodge from an Intel Corp. server 12 miles away. The technology behind the public-relations stunt: Intel's much-promoted WiMax -- a kind of Wi-Fi on steroids. ...

Protecting Yourself From A Housing Slump
(BusinessWeek Online) 12/28/2004 08:48 AM
BusinessWeek Online - In many U.S. cities, the housing market looks as extravagant and top-heavy as a Dr. Seuss castle. In metro New York, the median price of a single-family house is up 78% since 1999, according to the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight. The gains are even bigger in Miami (87%), Los Angeles (97%), and San Diego (115%). For years house prices in these markets have risen faster than family incomes. The trend made sense when mortgage interest rates were falling, but rates hit bottom in mid-2003 and they're likely to rise. Put it all together, says Yale University economist Robert J. ...

BusinessWeek Online - Nick D'Onofrio has always been proud of his Italian heritage. The IBM senior vice-president of technology is a second-generation American, and his grandparents came from the boot south of Rome. So he was shocked when he learned in February that his ancestry stretched back to the Middle East's Fertile Crescent. "Nobody was more flabbergasted than me at the news," says D'Onofrio. "I said, 'What? I'm Italian!'"

BusinessWeek Online - For more than a year, PeopleSoft Inc. CEO Craig Conway has battled to prevent Oracle Corp.'s Larry Ellison from grabbing his company in a hostile takeover. Now, Conway's spirited quest has absorbed a potentially fatal blow: On Sept. 9, U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn R. Walker ruled that the Justice Dept. had no grounds to block the acquisition. While the European Community could still stop it, the legal case for halting this shotgun wedding is looking weaker by the day.

BusinessWeek Online - Howard Rheingold is on the hunt again. With his last book, Smart Mobs: The Next Social Revolution, in 2001, the longtime observer of technology trends made a persuasive case that pervasive mobile communications, combined with always-on Internet connections, will produce new kinds of ad-hoc social groups. Now, he's starting to take the leap beyond smart mobs, trying to weave some threads out of such seemingly disparate developments as Web logs, open-source software development, and Google.

More than 700 employees bused to Palo Alto, Calif., by Cisco Systems (NasdaqNM:CSCO - News), Intel (NasdaqNM:INTC - News), Sun Microsystems (NasdaqNM:SUNW - News), and other Silicon Valley companies staged a protest near a hearing by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, which wants options expensed by yearend. ...

Who's Holding Back Digital TV? Well,
Everyone, For Starters...

Who's Holding Back Digital TV? Well,
Everyone, For Starters... 03/24/2005 05:19 AM
The move to digital TV is a big deal, but it's just not happening in the US. The reason? Where do you start? Basically, the simplest answer is that everyon e is to blame. Right now everyone is pointing fingers, and to some extent they're all right. No one really sees the benefits -- and there don't seem to be any one to explain them. It's a huge chicken and egg problem. Consumers don't see why they should go digital because they already get the content they want. Also, it seems likely that many consumers are confused about digital TV and HDTV and whether or not they're different. Broadcasters don't see why they should upgrade to go digital when viewers aren't going digital and so everyone sits around going nowhere. Of course, maybe this means the whole broad cast flag thing will get denied before everyone's forced to move to digital TV and your TiVo stops working.
