苹果iPhone手机入华难有目共睹，但即使成功打入中国市场，iPhone的普及程度也未必能达到美国的水平。##CONTINUE##经过长期谈判，相继与两家运营商接触，时至今日苹果iPhone手机仍未顺利进军中国市场，由此可见这并不是一件容易的事情。苹果首席运营官提姆·库克(Tim Cook)近期曾表示，希望能于明年打进中国市场。即便如此，iPhone在中国的发展也未必一帆风顺。iPhone在中国市场的潜力不言而喻，几乎没有几个国家能够与之匹敌。但中国消费者也不会为了苹果的产品而付出额外的高昂成本，因为苹果的品牌知名度在中国并没有像在美国和日本那么高。当前，iPod播放器在中国的市场份额不到8%，Mac计算机的市场份额更是不到1%。中国的相关法规和文化差异也将在一定程度上限制iPhone在中国的发展。例如，手机的Wi-Fi功能要受到限制。由于担心版权问题，

微软投资者关系部门总经理比尔·科夫德(Bill Koefoed)周三表示，上网本已经不再是微软的威胁。##CONTINUE##最初，大部分上网本都采用Linux系统，即使采用Windows，微软也只能从中获取一小部分利润。因此，上网本的风靡反倒影响了微软营收。但科夫德周三表示，微软最初将上网本视为营收威胁，但现在却已经变成了机会。他说：“在过去的6-9个月中，Windows上网本市场份额逐渐提升。”由于Windows Vista对硬件要求太高，因此导致第一代上网本都采用Linux系统。后来，微软允许上网本使用Windows XP系统，从而提高了市场份额。英国调研机构Ovum今年3月公布的数据显示，尽管Linxu在上网本市场领先一步，但Windows已后来居上。Ovum分析师劳伦特·拉查尔(Laurent Lachal)说：“在Linux强势起步之后，Linux上网本的销售量已经被

在中国联通目前启动全球最大规模光纤接入网设备招标后，光纤到户技术实际上已显露结果：由于联通最终选择现阶段已大规模商用的EPON技术，大力发展光纤到户、光纤到楼，EPON技术已明显占据市场优势。##CONTINUE##三大运营商同步瞄准光纤到户目前，国内三家全业务运营商正在进行各自的FTTx(光纤接入网络)部署。其中，中国电信持续开展光进铜退战略，建设模式以PON+LAN/DSL为主，规模部署EPON，开展少量GPON试点。中国移动也已在全国20多个省开始进行PON试点，总量约数十万线。中国联通的前身之一、原中国网通先后于07年和08年完成两次EPON集中采购招标。仅在山西联通一期“光速城市”建设中，山西联通就共完成了近五千栋楼宇的FTTx部署。2007-2008年，山西联通通过两年的时间，完成了近4000个“光进铜退”农村接入点FTTC的建设。此次又启动了1100万线的光纤接入网设备招标

根据苹果公布的消息，这个消费电子产品巨头将推出一款仅售99美元的iPhone(手机上网)以及价格更为低廉的MacBook Pro系列笔记本，与此同时，苹果还宣布新款iPhone 3G S也将走低价路线。分析师指出，苹果的降价策略和低价路线能够在很大程度上提高产品的市场份额，而借助于零部件供应商更理想的报价以及从应用软件身上赚取更高利润，降价举措和低价做法并不会对利润率产生太大影响。##CONTINUE##降价举措大幅提高销量令苹果观察家们感到好奇的是，在经济不景气这种不利形势下，苹果这个消费电子产品巨头能否推出价格更为低廉的产品，以吸引当下提倡节约的消费者。根据经验，在其他公司的很多产品销售处于不景气时，苹果只需采取降价策略，便可让包括Mac、iPod以及iPhone在内的所有旗下产品抢占巨大的市场份额。在6月8日针对软件开发人员举行的一场公司活动上，苹果最终终结了外界的种种猜测，

苹果iPhone(手机上网)手机应用程序开发人员在家中或车库中卖出了大量游戏，日子过得有滋有味。如今又悄然出现了一种靠为iPhone手机编写软件赚钱的新模式——先是销售应用程序软件，接着将公司也卖出去。##CONTINUE##开拓新市场的重要途径2007年以来，苹果应用程序商店的软件下载次数超过10亿，而iPhone和iPod Touch的销量亦超过4000万部，所以，越来越多的企业将手机行业看作是稳定的营收来源。近来，由巴里•迪勒(Barry Diller)创建的互联网巨头InterActiveCorp(简称IAC)和亚马逊都收购了应用软件开发商。而小企业则开始开发新的功能，欲从中分得一杯羹。由于苹果的经验表明新的应用程序可以推动手机销售，应用程序市场正在快速发展。Palm、RIM、诺基亚和微软都针对运行于各自操作系统上的手机建立自己的应用程序商店。另外，一些企业还在为运行于谷歌

雅虎昨日宣布，将在中国北京设立全球研究和发展中心。有分析人士指出，该中心或成为雅虎的违规产物，并恶化阿里巴巴与雅虎的关系，因为两者此前曾签署合作协议。##CONTINUE##业界将雅虎的上述举动归结为“雅虎和阿里巴巴产生了不合”：雅虎研发中心的成立是其要绕开阿里巴巴、进行新的中国战略部署的信号。阿里巴巴集团强调，雅虎在中国成立研发中心，需要征得阿里巴巴的同意，并且北京全球研发中心不能够在中国涉足任何领域的互联网业务。据悉，雅虎美国与阿里巴巴在2005年达成了合作协议，雅虎品牌在中国的使用权以及雅虎当时在华资产都归阿里巴巴所有。按照双方的约定，雅虎在中国的品牌归阿里巴巴集团所有，雅虎中国是阿里巴巴旗下的子公司。不过，雅虎全球高级副总裁杰夫-金德尔在昨日的发布会上回避了“合规与否”的问题。金德尔表示，目前没有改变与阿里巴巴合作关系的计划。但他强调，该研发中心与阿里巴巴没有隶属关系，

备受关注的光纤到户技术之争突然有了转机，去年中国电信还大力采用EPON技术进行试点，如今已转变为EPON与GPON技术试点齐头并进，而GPON这个被外资厂商一直极力举荐的技术制式终于在中国绝处逢生。##CONTINUE##首次GPON试点开始由于现有ADSL能提供的速率仅有512K到4M，已经无法与目前正在上马的3G比拼，因此，运营商大力提升固网速率已迫在眉睫。但是，采用何种技术制式一直是争论不休的事情。此前数天，新浪科技已报道，中国电信将采取DSL技术与光纤到户技术同步推进的方式，但其中光纤到户技术又存在GPON和EPON两种技术之争。从2007年开始，中国电信就用EPON进行试点，而且试点规模越来越大。知情人士透露，今年中国电信突然又决定进行GPON试点。据悉，早在今年2至3月，中国电信就进行了GPON试点招标。此次中国电信共设了13个GPON试验点，烽火、华为、

一场关于中国软件盗版率到底是多少的“辩论赛”再次开幕。BSA与IDC在5月底针对互联网实验室的质疑做了回应，互联网实验室9日又对这些“回应”进行了回应，并提出了两个新的质疑。##CONTINUE##BSA及IDC对互联网实验室的新回应暂未置评。以下为互联网实验室发给新浪科技的相关说明。1、互联网实验室提出的质疑之一：“在基本概念上，BSA计算的只是PC软件的盗版率，却误导人们当成整个软件产业的盗版率。盗版软件造成的经济损失，相对于计算机软件产品市场和相对于整个软件产业的比率是不同的，前者比后者要大得多。如果认为整个软件产业的盗版率是80%，则2008年度软件产业的潜在价值应为3.8万亿元，相当于电信业的60%，全国GDP的13%，这显然是很荒唐的。”BSA及IDC的答复：关于新近发布的全球PC软 件第六次年度盗版研究报告，以及之前的研究报告，我们一直明确说明本盗版率研究只是针对PC软件，

Want to know what gets my blood pressure up? It's when there's both a huge shift in thinking around how we should do computing, namely cloud computing, and at the same time, there's a bunch of information out there that causes confusion. As cloud computing hype spikes to a frenzy, so does the number of less-than-intelligent things that I hear about it and its relationship to SOA.##CONTINUE##We've
