Re: Paving the way for a digital world
@Adi my teen daughters were talking about just this a few days ago. One explained that Apple does that deliberatley, planning on its customers only keeping the phone for a year and then trading up to newest version. She was already wise to avoiding any dowloads, a mistake she said a friend of hers had made.

Re: Paving the way for a digital world
@dcawrey - Welcome to the club. I just got "bullied" into a new smartphone because some apps I "need" would only work on a more advanaced OS, and my phone didn't have the memory to support the new version of the OS. It;s the way of the CE industry...got to get you to buy new stuff.

Re: Paving the way for a digital world
@dchampagne70 I need more than 8GB on my smartphone - I am just now realize that.
One thing that I have been really enjoying these days is Spotify's download feature. It really makes getting my playlist ready to go for a flight super easy - but 8GB just isn't enough!
Paving the way for a digital world
I am so surprised about how many things are out there that makes it so easy for the digital world. Some of the products and programs makes it a lot better for the digital world. There is so many new ideas out there for companies now-a-days.
I love that there is 8 GB for Smartphones. This will really make the digital world better and easier. You will be able to a lot with your phones instead of always needing a laptop with you.

Re: Digital world
There are ways to try to be small when you are actually big. Many companies accomplish this via incubators or accelerators, or they often invest or acquire startups. As more companies realize they need to do this, there will be more strategies. At least they are trying.

Re: always a problem..
I could see Facebook going the way of Yahoo or MySpace. Especially if it only acquires startups like it without internal innovation projects. Yahoo had the same problem.

Re: always a problem..
I don't forsee any of those companies disappearing, but their roles in the tech landscape may change. We have already seen IBM do a good deal of morphing over the years.

Re: always a problem..
I think you are right, most standard laptops start at 4GB with the option to add more. I wonder how big the phone is and if they had so sacrife other features for the increased RAM.

Paving the Way for a Digital World
Deutsche Telecom has a valuable partnership with Huawei in that if, like Bronder said, Europe has "slept through the first phase of digitization," this strategic partnership will help to wake it up. She said Huawei is instrumental in helping it develop the telecom part of its cloud portfolio. I don't think Europe was really sleeping through digitization so much as it was so concerned about security that it moved cautiously.

Re: Digital world
She seemed to have a theme of not being able to do things alone, so it stands to reason she meant that DT needs software partners. But I think that could be a bad strategy for a telecom to outsource development to partners. Unless someone around here can convince me otherwise that it's not such a bad idea.
