TheMobile World Congress, which kicked off on Monday, is the annual event where everyone who hates Apple goes to grouse about their profits and point out Apple's lack of real progress. That's pretty much everyone who is anyone, aside from Apple itself, which also is at the event. ...

One of the biggest problems for those of us who have electric cars is charging. Chargers that drop the charging time to a few minutes have been coming to market, but the cars that can use those chargers haven't yet begun to ship. ...

"This is a focused service for business content," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group Live streaming is "a late communications and media strategy for LinkedIn," noted Ray Wang, principal analyst at Constellation Research. "Live events, training, and intera...

Last week, like a lot of you, I imagine, I watched the State of the Union and tried to figure out what was true and what was fiction. Tied into several of the live-streamed press fact-checking streams, I found that the comments validating or invalidating what the president said came in so far after the comment was made that it would have been better to skip the speech and wait until the next day when the talk and the feedback were better matched. ...

I've been watching antitrust cases actively since the 1980s. I had to study historical antitrust cases going back to Standard Oil and RCA, in order to ensure compliance with a related consent decree When I worked at IBM. Each of the other cases had one thing in common: Both of the companies being charged were massively and obviously monopolies. ...

"Samsung is the segment leader," noted Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group. "If they do something, every other smartphone vendor will certainly consider following," he told the E-Commerce Times. That said, "whether they actually follow will likely have a lot t...

Intel released earnings last week, and it was ugly. Yes, the company beat expectations on the bottom line, but it missed big on the top line and the outlook was dismal. Looking under the covers, the company is a mess. The expected CEO announcement -- it has been operating with an interim CEO -- didn't occur. ...

Things have been changing at an almost unprecedented rate with regard to power structures. The last time I saw this happen was in the 1970s when the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission took off. Suddenly a lot of the off-color, sexist and racist jokes that many executives regularly told could get them fired. A surprisingly large number of people got reassigned, fired, demoted, or otherwise punished for the same behavior that previously had made them "one of the guys."

YouTube TV "appears to be pretty complete," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group It's "a strong alternative to large cable offerings for a fraction the cost," he told TechNewsWorld....

To suggest that electric cars are having a painful birth would be a colossal understatement. Tesla clearly plowed this field and quickly recognized that the lack of a charging infrastructure was going to be a problem and, with reasonable effectiveness, dealt with it tactically. However, those "tactical" chickens are about to come home to roost and it probably won't be pretty. ...

"It really will depend on the quality of the rollout -- and I think Verizon is serious, but I doubt they have the talent to pull this off successfully," observed Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the EnderleGroup "This is one of those things that sounds like a good easy idea b...

However, "I would have argued 15 years ago that people wouldn't pay much over $500 for a phone, and we have more than doubled that," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld At $1,500 the revived Motorola Razr "is in the same neighborhood as App...

"I have a lot of these [controllers] in my house, and, at times they go a bit insane," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group. "It's clear the designs didn't anticipate multiple devices very well," he told TechNewsWorld....

"There is a race to capture and analyze data at massive scale because the information that results can redefine competitions, ranging from political and military areas, to healthcare, to weather, to all aspects of business," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, an advisory services firm in Bend, Oregon...

We are approaching critical mass on a number of technologies that we will see increasingly this year. This wave will start at CES, where we will see an impressive number of attempts at personal robots and AI-powered digital assistants. Most will fail. However, both the failures and the few successes will set the stage for the first true mobile personal robots that will arrive in the following years. ...

Picking a product of the year is anything but trivial because the products I cover every week range from headphones to laptops to books, cars and more. So, I thought I'd try something different this year and pick six products that each deserve the title and then name a winner that stands out from the rest. ...

The report "is very disturbing," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times Abusive and Problematic Tweets...

More artificial intelligence may be necessary, not less, if Amazon wants to protect the innocent and nail the guilty, suggested Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, an advisory services firm in Bend, Oregon "Amazon needs to implement deep learning-based protect...

The reasons behind Apple's fight against Qualcomm seem as poorly founded as President Trump's reasons for wanting a wall. Pretty much everyone who understands walls -- including China, which has the biggest -- knows they don't really work. Unless you can afford to man the thing, people will find ways over or under it. ...

"Credentials are about security, not operation," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group "Once you connect up a smart city, you can lower operating costs, lower traffic, provide better police protection through better dispatch --larger area fewer people -- and...
