Mobility strategies and budgets will be reviewed in 2010 with netbooks, Blackberries and iPhone apps driving new billing and upgrade models. IT spending is expected to increase slightly with only moderate upgrades from XP or Vista to Windows 7. Incremental investment will be significant with existing technologies from CRM, ERP and PLM vendors. Despite efforts to monetize online content, consumers will push back on online subscriptions, denying that revenue stream. Bonus: Google moves toward a monopoly, causing skeptics to wonder why neither the EU nor US governments have taken a closer look Source: Nucleus Research

Tablets Are Coming, or at Least Something Bigger than Phones but Smaller than Netbooks to occupy the 5 to 9 inch screen range. Apps Will Rule.. emphasis on who has the better apps or the biggest collection of apps as a deciding factor for device purchases. Even TVs, laptops and the as-yet- unconfirmed flood of tablets will live or die by their apps. Green Is the New Black- Being "green" (environmentally friendly) will be even more prevalent in 2010.

Recovery, Apple, Yahoo, Oracle NANCY WEIL Managing Editor IDG –News Service We enter recovery -The global economy will limp into the first calendar quarter of next year, with IT playing an important role in the recovery, which will be modest in 2010. Apple bites into e-readers- Apple's tablet/e-reader will be unveiled to great spectacle and fanfare in the first quarter of the year. In other Apple news, AT&T's contractual gridlock on the iPhone will be broken, with Verizon entering that lucrative market. Paging Jerry Yang - Carol Bartz will be out as Yahoo's CEO by the end of 2010, as the company continues to struggle and tries to reinvent itself, renewing its focus on technology rather than marketing and branding schemes. Oracle finally gets Sun and other M&A news Source: Info World

Mobile Broadband, Apple, B2B Data Deals @jtsd JULIEN THEYS Analyst Screen Digest Facebook’s careful and progressive foray into Location-Based services will deal a deadly blow to many mobile LBS startups. Sony Ericsson and Motorola’s handset businesses will face very serious existential crisis and possibly split up. Sony is very likely to take another solo shot at mobile (inorder to leverage the Playstation branding) Palm will be acquired by a bigger fish. Sync services, Address Book/Social Network consolidation and cloud backups are going to be ubiquitous. Apple’s app store will remain an outlier in terms of success. Source: Technobabble 2.o

Mobile Broadband, Apple, B2B Data Deals @jtsd JULIEN THEYS Analyst Screen Digest Open source mobile software will keep tech pundits busy yet customers won’t care A very bad year for Windows Mobile, Microsoft to (try to) unify all its scattered efforts in portable media (WinMo, Zune, Sidekick…) People will keep buying simple phones and not care about mobile web. Wholesale B2B mobile data deals (like Kindle content delivery) to bring in extra cash for operators (big for eBook readers, navigation and automotive industries). Don’t hold your breath: Google hardware, iPhone nano, Android-based Nokias, decent mobile broadband speed & coverage. Tempted to say no Apple Tablet in 2010 because, really, where’s the rush?

Innovations and UI with Computing Devices @hedgeyetech REBECCA RUNKLE Managing Director of Technology Research Edge Technology Mobile Penetration will accelerate in 2010. This, in turn, will drive location-based services, cloud computing, real-time products and services, advertising, and e- commerce. Mobile payment systems will also become the defacto norm. Context Dethrones Content. The convergence of algorithms, location-based services and social media enables real-time, relevant, personalized filtering. Context is King. 2010 will mark the inflection point for television, movie and music content becoming accessible anywhere, at anytime. Apple’s Lala acquisition will prove to be the catalyst that leads the way. Mobility and search by image combine to yield a digitized physical world. Links to the virtual world appear in the real world. Microsoft ’s Decade of Dominance gives way to Apple and Google Touchscreens and gestures will dominate. In mobile, expect more use of gestures, tilt and accelerometers. Gesture-based gaming is around the corner. Source: Forbes

Innovations and UI with Computing Devices @hedgeyetech REBECCA RUNKLE Managing Director of Technology Research Edge Technology Cloud is the next killer app--those without it will be killed. Data and applications will move off the desktop and into more centralized compute nodes, enabling accessibility and collaboration Office Web Apps and Google’s Chrome OS will accelerate the shift to Web-centric computing. Real-time will be an expected feature throughout the Web. Smartphone adoption will accelerate real-time’s relevance big time in 2010. Location-based services will be a part of social media (Twitter), a part of mobility (Android) and a part of an increasing number of diverse interactions on the Web Standalone GPS devices and stand-alone mass market cameras/video cameras will finally die. A larger-screened device will show the world that stand-alone products-- Garmin GPS devices, Flip Video Cameras or Kindles – are feature sets. Privacy will continue to erode at a dizzying rate. Consumers will voice concerns, but ultimately the value of the new products will outweigh the loss of privacy. Source: Forbes
