"The problem we've seen with the Android tablet is that Android hasn't scaled well to the tablet size," Rob Enderle, principal with the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "The end result is that RIM looked at that and decided they wanted to go for something that was specifically designed for the tablet size." ...

Not necessarily, Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld "Most of the large vendors are pointing out that, for certain kinds of jobs, these large systems provide better return on investment because they're purpose-built and designed," he said....

"California is a right-to-work state. That means it was going to be difficult, if not impossible, for HP to block Hurd going to work for Oracle after HP effectively had terminated him," Rob Enderle, principal analyst with the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times. "And while Mark Hurd clearly has intellectual property that HP is concerned about him sharing, they don't really have a case until they can show that he actually shared that information."

The Galaxy's 7-inch screen is smaller than the iPad's but has benefits of its own. "The small screen of the iPhone or [an Android phone] make me feel like I should be wearing glasses," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "If you're someone who thinks a 3.5-inch screen is just fine, you'll probably want to stay with that."

At one time, HP was such a nice, quiet company. It was a relatively steady firm known for loyal employees, solid ethics, and products you could trust but not necessarily get excited about (unless you loved calculators and were part of the pocket protector set). While I think excitement is grand, I'm thinking there are a lot of folks at HP who are wishing for the old days. National scandals, out of control CEOs, and blossoming wars have defined Silicon Valley's last decade -- and if last week is an indicator, this decade will be even more exciting.

Possibly not, Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld "This will be a slow roll-out both because of the cost of the solution and the fact that lots of folks have bought TV sets recently," Enderle explained. "These factors, and the noise around 3...

The entire future of a company or industry can hinge on one little deal. The US$50,000 IBM paid to license Windows was the foundation for Microsoft and the technology industry for the last couple of decades. Apple's licensing contract with Portal Player to create the iPod was nearly as big -- and certainly huge for that company. The sale of 3Par could also be one of those pivotal deals, as huge firms like HP, IBM, Oracle, Microsoft, Dell, VMware, Cisco and EMC position themselves around the new "cloud" opportunity. ...
