Plantronics Voyager 510S

September 30, 2005

I have been using the Plantronics Voyager 510S for over a month. I have used the headset every day and night during this time. I wanted to put it through its paces before writing about it. The precise product I have is the Plantronics Voyager 510S Bluetooth Headset System as it says here on the box.

The headset itself works with both an office phone and your bluetooth enabled phone/device.

Glance Networks

September 28, 2005

I have had great results testing the presentation software from Glance Networks. The software is extremely simple to us. I am on the Beta version 2.00.50 ( I am pretty sure this version is now live) and it is the only version I have used. People I speak with in the industry who have used the service love it.

IP Conferencing and Collaboration

September 15, 2005

Check our new IP conferencing and collaboration channel on TMCnet. I really like the design of this site. It just went live today and am sure it will get lots of attention from the many people looking for news on the IP conferencing and collaboration market.

It seems that with gas prices going higher and higher, market growth has nowhere to go but up, up, up.

Gas Prices Fuel Conferencing

September 2, 2005

I read today on Greg Galitzine’s VoIP blog about how the higher gas prices seem to be leading us to rely on conferencing more and more. In this post on gas prices and conferencing Frost and Sullivan is predicting the web conferencing market will grow from 1 billion today to $2 billion in 2009. This seems like a conservative growth number to me and I wonder if it takes into the account of the cost of conferencing decreasing quickly over time.

There are other great projections in Greg’s blog post so if you are interested, feel free to take a look at what Greg wrote.

Rates Technology and Alcatel

August 25, 2005

In my blog entry on Rates Technology Inc I mentioned Alcatel as in default. Specifically:

After it became impossible to get them covered, RTI recently filed suit for willful patent infringement against Centrepoint Technologies, Inc. for much less money than Mitel and Alcatel (they certainly are a smaller company).

Mitel Networks was sued for $945 Million; Alcatel was sued for $1.155 Billion; and their default is pending in USDC EDNY. Hello Direct, GN Netcom and GN had been sued by RTI for patent infringement, and they recently settled with RTI; the terms are being kept confidential

.

Since that time I have learned the court has vacated the default meaning it is now in the hands of California courts since Alcatel sued Rates Technology Inc. first in California.

Rates Technology Inc.

April 19, 2005

I have been hearing more and more rumblings in the VoIP industry regarding Jerry Weinberger of Rates Technology Inc. (RTI). I don't get too many people coming to me about patent issues so when I heard about this company, I decided to delve into this potential story a bit more. What intrigued me is that apparently RTI has no products... They exist to collect revenue from other companies.

I did some research and found that Rates Technologies has sued Nortel, Sharp Electronics and others.

Please click here to subscribe to these free publications immediately.

In the last few days TMC has made some amazing announcements regarding our publications. The first bit of news is that our print publications are going digital, meaning they will be available via PDF. Instead of having to wait 2 weeks for the printer to print the magazine and another 2+ weeks for delivery, you will receive your magazine via an e-mail link that will allow you to download a PDF that includes hyperlinks allowing you to get more out of the magazine than print could ever provide. There is nothing like the flexibility of reading a PDF publication with good hyperlinks in it allowing you to go to definitions, stock quotes and other related sites with the click of your mouse.
