Why the Blackbrry Smartphone is so Valuable?
This article gives a brief overview of the ever so popular blackberry devices
Why Physicians Need PR
Physicians, more than most professionals, need to be aware of how they are perceived by the public. A person’s health is his or her most valuable asset, and to most there is nothing more important than picking the right healthcare practitioner. No one wants to put their health in the hands of someone they don’t trust. This is one reason why (in the health and medical world) although advertising and direct mail promotions can be successful, they can also backfire. A prospective patient does not chose a physician, healthcare provider, or a hospital, the same way he or she chooses a new Smartphone or a new set of tires. Patients want to see someone they trust, someone they feel is the best in the field, and that’s why a well planned public relations campaign is so very important to building a medical practice.

Your Hardware Selection Depends on
You would think as our technology becomes more advanced it would also become more simplified but that just isn't happening. We keep introducing new products (sometimes boldly called category killers) and then somehow people figure out how to add more features, more capabilities, more everything all to show you don't need the other guy's thing. Doesn't happen instead we have more -- of everything! We have more notebooks, more netbooks, more tablets, more smartphones, more plain old phones, just more!! So we get a bigger backpack and add the new category killer with the earlier category killers. All we have to do is figure out who's environment we're working in from time to time
Clash of the Titans II
We thought we had put the Clash of the Titans behind us but Hollywood made a sequel. It gave the PC/CE industry an opportunity for the industry titans to stretch their control over the landscape even more. Titans are taking the opportunity to payback those who bruised their egos, encroached on their "territories" and just did things they didn't like. The Titan Titans -- Apple, Google, Adobe -- are hollering at each other with regularity. The other Titans are mumbling and filing law suits. Everyone -- including governmental agencies around the globe -- is watching closely to see who is doing what and to whom.

Let Paper Join HistoryPress Kits Join History
The CEA (Consumer Electronics Association) started the world of change a few years ago "encouraging" PR people to only use online press services or online kits. Most of the shows followed suit (MWC - Mobile World Congress, CTIA and well most other shows) going green and making press materials available to media folks even if they didn't attend. But the hue and cry from publicists at NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) show was difficult to understand. The benefits of the web and online services aren't new. After all these years we're rather glad to see the blood, sweat, tears of paper kits disappear
CES 2010 – Look Good, Act Assured, Play Loud
It is so easy to get swept up in the excitement, the presentations of CES. This year was no exception because there was an event-wide feeling that things are improving and that the PC, CE, communications industry has not only rebounded but is set for a number of years of solid growth. Watch the presentations and it is almost easy to believe that the world really does evolve around us. There are still challenges mixed in with the opportunities. There are sound ideas and products amidst the noise and sometimes it is difficult to see which products and product categories will be immediate hits and which will take months (or longer) to gain traction. We looked at them all and give you a different look at which will rise to the top...and when. It's still Shapiro's Greatest Show on Earth.

Smartphones and Work Life Balance
A look at Work Life Balance in light of the 'always in reach' reality of the 21st Century business landscape.

Digital Bytes – The Challenge of Balancing Real, Virtual Worlds
People jog off cliffs, they walk into manholes, they walk into the middle of the street without looking, they go through meals never looking away from their screen -- regardless of which one it is -- updating their social media, viewing/responding to emails...moving around the virtual world missing some of the really neat stuff going on in the real world. Hey we're guilty too!!

Sharing the Cost of Mobile Speed, Content
Ok every device manufacturer, every service provider (around the globe) is hot to trot to ensure they get their unfair share of your mobile device, content, service dollar (or respective currency). Heck in a year or two we'll even have all the bandwidth to provide the level of service you expect and they're promising. Sure folks are talking about a ton of professional video but it will be a lot of personal/family photos/video across the bandwidth. As they say the service will be good and sure it's a little expensive. That's where mobile advertising comes into play and man agencies/companies are all over a targeted way of reaching/influencing you like a bear on honey. They're moving fast to beat each other to the finish line. Some will never finish the race...so which ones will you bet (invest) your money on?

Netbooks…The Easy Way to Sell More Service
It sounds almost too good to be true -- a cheap computer you can use/carry everywhere, never have to upgrade the operating system or your apps, with a battery that lasts for ... well a long, long time. Sounds great except we end up leaving all of our work in the beautiful white clouds. The clouds move. We forget which cloud has our stuff and how we get in. Worse, there's a **** storm in the cloud just as we want to get in. Yeah...who knew what grandpa taught our little Miss Sunshine while we were out of the room?? Guess we may end up with yet another device to take along... convenience sure is getting heavy!!!

Moving Forward by Looking Over Our Shoulder
Everyone is busy telling you what's gonna be hot, what's not, what's going to be the killer, what's not. We know too but we're going to wait to tell you what we know until the end of 2012 (assuming the Mayans aren't right). Then you'll be amazed that we're 100 percent right...amazing. But to know, understand what tomorrow holds for us we really need to see what the past year delivered.

The Economics of E-Mail

The full whitepapers are available on our website.
Beyond the 3-Minute Call…Business, Entertainment or Cool
It is difficult to believe that Apple has reshaped the mobile communications industry with the iPhone but more than 5,000 applications are available for the unit. Every operating system and service provider is now offering their own apps store for their smartphones. It's an outstanding opportunity for small firms to look big.

People, Work, Play and Content Are On the Move

Time to live for today but get prepared for tomorrow and beyond.

Providers Work to Profitably Meet Data/Video Bandwidth Demand
Friends in the Pacific Basin laugh at us when we talk about our 4G mobile service. When we say the infrastructure is being enhanced with LTE and soon we'll have 12MB bandwidth they look at us with pity. But when they look at our "all you can eat" service there is envy in their eyes. We don't bother telling them that the everything data plans are either capped or throttled and going away...why disillusion them? Some really smart people have an idea of how to build a new bridge and get us more bandwidth. It will come to pass even if the broadcasters don't like it because...there's money involved.

The Seduction of Technology
Technology is all around us. It has become an everyday part of our life and the seduction of technology is often enough to make us drop thousands of dollars to get the latest and greatest. This can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on what type of technology is seducing you.
