About this weblog
Here we'll report daily on the latest tech and business developments in New York City. Impossible we concede: comprehensive coverage of the city's every story. What we hope you'll find: tips, tidbits and perspectives you won't find elsewhere. As well as unique insights, original interviews and more that should be of interest to New York's vibrant community of technologists and those who track, invest in and report on them.
In raving about the iPod Nano, New York Times personal tech guru David Pogue predicts that Apple will soon control more than 80% of the global marketplace for digital music players -- a feat that many on Wall Street didn't think was possible. One analyst cited by Pogue, in fact, earlier stated that, "Nobody can sustain an 80% market share in a consumer electronics business for more than two or three years. It's pretty much impossible." The iPod Nano could change all that: "To see one is to want one. If you hope to resist, lash your credit card to your wallet like Odysseus to the mast."
