FT.com - It is a commonly held belief that Microsoft, Symbian and Linux are squared up for battle in the mobile operating systems market, with Linux playing the role of Alexander the Great's reserve cavalry. All other players, it is said, will be trampled underfoot in the melee. The prize is control of the value chain in mobile communications.

Vodafone May Have Bigger Fish To Fry -
Or Not
02/10/2004 05:32 PM
Talk about surprise endings... The big story everyone's been focused on in the wireless world over the past few weeks is the battle for AT&T Wireless. Everyone's been watching what Cingular, DoCoMo and Vodafone are going to do. The latest rumor, though, is that Vodafone might have even bigger ideas in mind. Instead of just looking at the $4 0 billion they might spend on AT&T Wireless, they're exploring the possibility of a $ 150 billion hostile takeover bid of all of Verizon - not just the wireless part (of which, they already own 45%). The plan would then be to sell off the boring non-wireless part of the business and then have full control over Verizon Wireless. Om Malik thinks that this is just a ploy by Vodafone to keep Verizon quiet and willing to buy out Vodafone's 45% of Verizon Wireless without trying to jack up the price. That definitely makes the most sense. Vodafone can do a lot more in pushing their "global" vision with AT&T Wireless (which uses the same network technology as Vodafone around the world) than with Verizon Wireless.

New Blu-ray Details Emerge


New Blu-ray Details Emerge 08/05/2004 10:18 AM
Specifics have been murky about how the Blu-ray Disc format can succeed DVD by enabling the recording of high-definition content. But the companies behind the format have recently tipped their hand to their strategy, including future enhancements.

DVDs don't have the storage capacity to accommodate an entire movie in high-definition format but Blu-ray Disc does. That's largely because it uses blue lasers to read and write data on the disc, rather than the red lasers used by DVD. A blue laser makes a smaller spot on the disc surface, which means the space required for one bit of data is smaller--and more data can be fit onto a 12-centimeter disc.
