Research company speculates Apple may

Research company speculates Apple may
buy TiVo
01/03/2005 12:03 PMApple Computer may acquire TiVo during 2005 in a bid to become a major
player in the digital home, suggests a new report by Forrester
Research.
"The Battle For The Digital Home," a new report from Forrester
Research, Inc., evaluates ten industries, including consumer
electronics, PC, content, games, telecommunications, and cable, that
are vying for control of the digital home. It concludes that some
industries are better positioned for success, but all must focus on
capturing and controlling new revenue streams through key
cross-industry partnerships and acquisitions.
Because the digital home power positions traverse industry lines,
Forrester sees many partnerships forming during the next three years.
Potential digital home alliances include: Apple's acquisition of TiVo,
providing Apple with a service platform for TV and video on-demand; a
joint venture between the NFL and FOX to create an immersive
experience where sports fans can choose viewer-selected camera angles
and split-screen content; Sony's acquisition of Clear Channel to
combine Sony's music and devices business with Clear Channel's radio
stations to offer personalized time-shifted digital radio; Google's
acquisition of TV Guide's interactive program guide allows it to
deliver a best-in-class personalized media application – video search;
a partnership between Microsoft and BellSouth, Verizon, and SBC to
provide an operating platform for IPTV, and finally, Disney's
acquisition of Electronic Arts.

04/23/2004 08:23 PMThe Wi-Fi Alliance, the group that certifies Wi-Fi equipment, moves
its headquarters from Silicon Valley to Austin, Texas: The Wi-Fi
Alliance is more a virtual organization with few staffers. The test
labs it work with are under contract all over the place. A television
station in Austin picks up the story and thinks that even though it
will create no jobs in the Austin area, that there's a large impact
involved. Sorry, folks, there won't be. That's not to put down Austin
(don't mess with Texas, as you know). Austin has a variety of free,
community, and for-fee groups and companies including Wayport and
Austin Wireless City. (Inset picture of Wayport's headquarters.)...

'sources say Yahoo has grown tired of Google.com's popularity and may

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.

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

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

12/28/2004 08:48 AMBusinessWeek Online - In many U.S. cities, the housing market looks as

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.

06/17/2005 07:12 PMA team of biologists and engineers at Case
Western Reserve University has developed two flexible robotic devices
that could make
invasive medical procedures such as colonoscopies safer for patients
and easier for doctors to administer. The first robotic device
creates the locomotion which draws on an understanding of how slugs,
leeches and
earthworms traverse their environments and grasp objects. The
device is constructed of three artificial muscules and looks like a
nine-inch long hollow worm. Sequencing the muscles mimicking the
undulating movement of slugs and worms propels the device forward.
Also, a gripper device has been developed that mimics the way hungry
California sea slugs grasp slippery seaweed. The gripper consists of
a four-inch, ball-like device, surrounded by muscle-like actuators in
the form of tubes or rings where one of the tubes contains a mouth
that opens and closes. So how would you like one of these roaming
through your colon?

scammer) before he sees the package, and a few days later it's
released by Customs as

More on 15" Powerbook screens...
11/12/2003 01:19 PMThis is probably well known by now, but according to a friend of
mine who is still trying to work out whether to get the 12" or 15" Apple Powerbook, he's been
advised by a man he talked to at a London Apple Centre that a 15"
variety will take longer to be delivered because Apple have accepted
there's a problem with the screen getting brighter spots on it.
Apparently they've definitely ceased production while they look into
it. This is probably extremely good news for those of us who have a
Powerbook with this problem, and it might explain why I have still not
received my return voucher, over a week and a half after I rang them
up. I'll be checking up on this later, but I thought I should probably
share the news. If anyone has more information on the subject, please
feel free to add links in the comments.

started appearing on their screens. On the off-chcance that you were
wondering what this looked like, here's a photo of one person's
defective Powerbook....
