Ericsson Nixes Bluetooth

Ericsson Nixes Bluetooth 09/03/2004 12:45 AM
Ericsson, the company that invented Bluetooth, said it would stop developing and licensing new Bluetooth hardware: Some say the move may be a death knell to a cable replacement technology that never lived up to its hype. Many observers say that Bluetooth was over-hyped. The technology was meant to be a simple cable replacement but the hype around it raised unrealistic expectations. When Bluetooth-enabled products hit the market, they were difficult to use. Plus, the price of Bluetooth chips didn't drop as fast as expected. However, Bluetooth does fill a need in the market. If the standard doesn't move forward, it's not clear what other technologies might fill the void. Bluetooth is still supported by many other big name companies, but having its creator pull back isn't exactly a vote of confidence....

SAG nixes video game work contract

SAG nixes video game work contract 06/22/2005 01:49 AM
Xeni Jardin: The Screen Actors Guild's National Executive Committee has voted to reject a new agreement with electronic game publishers. Snip from SAG press release, in which CEO Greg Hessinger is quoted as saying that the union will "now explore [its] options."

SAG's current three-year Interactive contract expired on May 13, 2005. SAG's National Executive Committee had been designated by the Guild national board to consider the tentative agreement, which was reached on June 8. The agreement had been jointly negotiated with the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA). AFTRA's National Administrative Committee approved the deal last week, and it will go into effect for their members on July 1, 2005. (...)

Negotiations on new Interactive Media Agreements began between the unions and video game companies in February 2005, before breaking off on May 13 when a strike authorization vote was called. Before the authorization vote tally was concluded on June 8, a tentative agreement between the producers and unions was reached. That tentative agreement would have covered the next three-and-a-half years, and included a 36 percent increase in minimum pay over the term as well as increases in benefit contributions. However, the producers refused the unions' demands for implementation of a residual model that would allow actors to share in the enormous revenues generated by the video games they perform in.
