Partnerships are increasingly under attack as less than credible in enterprise software, no more so than in CRM. Starting with classic logo and press release swaps between vendors desperate to fuel each other's sales pipelines, partnerships are met with increasing scrutiny in the world of enterprise software in general and CRM specifically.

The scope of this article includes partnerships between vendors not including system integrators -- which is a completely separate topic...

When I finally got to read the Microsoft press release, I understood -- they were pre-announcing by six months. The product was scheduled for release at the end of the year. Six months is a long time in our trade and it made me think of the database wars of the 1980s when vendors would routinely pre-announce new products in the hope of freezing purchase decisions.

But there are plenty of buyers who might prefer to put all their application eggs in one basket, and for them, waiting, even six months, would be prudent...

"In the next few years, Intel expects mobile devices will contain several different radios so they can utilize many different wireless communication networks," the company said in a press release. "Intel's research points toward a time in the future when one device will use 'smart' antenna systems and a reconfigurable CMOS radio on a single device, making the radio more power efficient, smaller and lower cost. The goal being pursued is the ability to connect to any network, anytime, anywhere on any device."
