Jason takes a big leap 03/14/2005 05:38 PM
As someone who's started two companies, I know the horror and thrill that comes with giving up a steady paycheck to follow a dream, and I'm so happy to see that Jason has decided to join the ranks of entrepreneurs and devote himself to full-time blogging at kottke.org. Jason is not going to support himself through advertising, rather he is asking for readers to act as micropatrons of his site and contribute to its upkeep. Please consider supporting him, not only because he writes a great site and because supporting dreams is important. This is the chance to support something new: an "amateur" deciding to edit a blog full-time without corporate support and without advertising. It's a long time blogger chosing to go pro, and Jason is the perfect person to do it.

partnership 09/14/2004 07:32 AM
Canon and Toshiba announced today that they would be launching a partnership worth $1.82 billion to produce the next generation of flat-panel display screens - Surface Conduction Electron Emitter Displays, or SED for short. The two companies have been conducting research on the technology since 1999.

SEDs are thinner that existing flat-screens are more power efficient, and do not require a back light (LCDs do). The companies will begin making SED panels for TVs in 2005. Currently, the pair is the only major companies developing SED panels, a fact unsurprising due to the massive investment costs involved. Toshiba will be using SED technology for TVs over 32" in size, with LCD technology being used for sizes below that.

Analysts DisplaySearch predict the flat-screen market to be worth ~ $97 billion in 2008, up from ~40 billion last year. Currently, the pair has no plans to license out the technology to other companies.

Flat-Screen Makers Face Patent Lawsuits
in U.S. 03/14/2005 06:26 PM
Two industrial manufacturers, Guardian Industries Corp. and Honeywell International Inc., have sued dozens of companies in the global PC and video display businesses in a U.S. federal court to try to recoup royalties on liquid-crystal technology. Guardian Industries, a maker of industrial glass, and Honeywell, known for making weapons systems, assert in filings in the U.S. District Court in Delaware that their intellectual property for liquid crystal displays, used in notebook computers, TVs, and cellular phones, have been infringed.

Taiwan and South Korea are the two primary centers of LCD production, which is growing rapidly as demand for LCD-based televisions rises. The lawsuits target the LCD industry directly, but also assert claims against companies that incorporate LCDs into final electronic products. Jin Kim, the director LCD market research for research firm DisplaySearch, said the LCD business largely avoided patent lawsuits through its earlier years, but has attracted litigants as the business blossomed into a $40 billion market.

Motorola to Intro Wi-Fi/Cell Phone

Motorola to Intro Wi-Fi/Cell Phone 07/27/2004 12:37 PM
Motorola, Avaya, and Proxim, today introduced an enterprise platform that enables voice roaming between enterprise WLANs and the wide area cellular networks: The solution includes a new handset from Motorola that looks like a typical cellular flip phone but can support voice over WLAN as well as voice over a GSM network. As part of the solution, enterprises must implement APs built by Proxim and Avaya, a call manager gateway from Motorola that enables the handoff between the networks, and an Avaya IP-PBX. The phone automatically reverts to the WLAN when it's available and can seamlessly hand off calls from the WLAN to a GSM network as a user moves between them. While it looks like a cell phone, it features a lot of the capabilities of a desk phone such as buttons for mute, hold, and speakerphone. It runs Win CE so can support Microsoft .Net applications and it includes a VPN. The gateway enables push-to-talk while users are covered by the WLAN. The platform offers some features that aren't available on the PDA introduced yesterday by HP and T-Mobile, namely voice over WLAN. "It's exciting to see the HP/T-Mobile solution, but it's an iPaq that has GSM voice on it," said Chris White, director of business development for enterprise seamless mobility with Motorola. "It doesn't do VOIP except with a softphone." In addition, because of that WLAN voice capability, the Motorola solution supports a single phone number that rings for users regardless of the network they are connected to. Users can also use a single mailbox and access many of the same PBX-type features both inside the office over the WLAN and outside on a GSM network. One obvious capability this phone seems to lack compared to the HP/T-Mobile handheld is GPRS. That means that users won't have any higher speed data access outside of the office. Sales, which will be handled at least initially by Avaya and not a cell phone operator, might be challenging because the decision to implement such a solution is complicated. An enterprise would have to decide to potentially switch existing cell phone users in the company to whichever GSM operators may support the phone--the companies haven't said which may support it. It also presumably means that a company might grapple with feeling the need to sign up additional cellular users in an effort to standardize on the phone. The decision also may...

So I almost skimmed past this while reading a rumor about the MPx (that I'll talk about after the jump), but boy, I'm glad I didn't. According to information gleamed from the FCC site, Motorola's new CN620 clamshell is coming to town, and by town I mean 'the town where you can transfer Wi-Fi Voice-Over-IP calls to GSM, also known as Awesomeville.' The quad-band GSM phone supports all three major Wi-Fi standards and is targeted towards corporate users.

Our sources at Motorola said to expect an official announcement later this month.

More about the CN620 and the MPx after the jump.
