Which wireless provider is doing the best job? Listening to them gets confusing. It's like me saying that I am the slimmest, healthiest and best-looking wireless analyst on this airplane (I'm flying to the west coast to give a speech). Now that line has as much truth in it as a load of horse manure -- but technically, since I am the only wireless analyst on this plane, I guess it is true. Listening to the major wireless providers strut their stuff is much like that -- and that is the problem we have to solve.

As I travel and speak at meetings around the country, one of the key topics that has been capturing a lot of attention is something I call "the Wave." This seems to be as interesting to the audience as it is to the executives who invited me to speak. In fact, I am often invited back to spend some one-on-one time with company leaders to discuss it further. I have been speaking for 25 years, and this seems to have hit a chord. Everyone wants to hear more. So what is the Wave to success all about? Let me give you a brief introduction.

The annual giant Consumer Electronics Show is happening this week in Las Vegas, and once again everything new in the electronics world is on display. I've been to a number of these CES events, and each seems bigger than the last. It is held not only in the very large Las Vegas Convention Center, but also at the Sands convention center and many other casino convention centers up and down the strip, between official and unofficial sites.

Taxes on all of the great new tech we just got? I was a guest on the Fox News show "Your World with Neil Cavuto" on Monday, and Brian Sullivan asked me about all the new taxes we better get ready for on all of our new holiday gifts. That's right. We better get ready for taxes galore. ...

Which should companies focus on first -- investors, customers or workers? This is a question we have asked and answered so many times, you would think the answer would be obvious. However, we always see companies either doing well or struggling because they just don't get it. A look at a few of today's winners and losers may reveal why this is so.

Jeff Kagan's Pick Of The Week: AT&T Ranks as Worst US Carrier Consumer Reports says AT&T Mobility is the "worst rated U.S. carrier." On one hand, this is a major blow to the wireless giant -- but on the other hand, it's nothing new. AT&T has been winning this award for many ye...

Jeff Kagan's Pick of the Week: Cox Now Wireless Cox, the No. 3 cable television company in the U.S., has just introduced its own wireless telephone service. A few years ago, Comcast and Time Warner tried to get into the cellphone business. That flopped. They marketed the servi...

Verizon has shown solid growth in recent years, but there could be signs of weakness in its quarterly numbers. I saw this a few months ago and decided to keep my eye on it. Maybe I am wrong. Maybe this is nothing. Maybe it is a temporary blip that won't keep repeating itself -- but something doesn't seem right. Verizon seems to be having some problems, especially compared with AT&T. So what is happening, and should we be getting worried? ...

"I don't like the idea of the FCC or government trying to control a market," telecom analyst Jeff Kagan told the E-Commerce Times. "First of all, they work too slowly, and second of all, they take the innovation out of the industry." The best solution, Kagan said, may be the m...
