IBM's chief executive Samuel J. Palmisano recently estimated that 67 per...
Ten years ago, the "smart home" was all the rage. Almost every company in our market had a concept center or display house that showed the functionality of the digital home.

AT&T has launched a 50-state in-home technology services organization designed to help everyday consumers install or troubleshoot all of their connected home technology -- HDTVs, wall-mount speaker systems, new PC installation, PC repair, and home network installation. The new service, called "A...
Beaumont, Texas, has become the testing ground for a new way to charge Internet users for access. It's meant to make heavy users pay more.

In many of Europe's leading markets, just one-fifth ...
WiFi has became pervasive. Not just laptops, but an arsenal of palmed-sized devices including smartphones, PDAs and mobile media players, now connect to the Internet using Wireless Fidelity technology. However, many users are clueless about security and connect to password-protected accounts and fin...
The competitive environment that characterizes today's broadband and value-added services landscape should certainly grow a variety of digital lifestyle products and services, including home networking.

IBM will acquire Sweden-based Telelogic in a $745 million cash deal, one that gives IBM access to a leading provider of application lifecycle management products.
