the OS platform, becomes less critical due to virtualization.


Reshaping the Data Center..lower cost by pod-based approach to data center
construction and expansion.

Social Computing.. focus on use of social software and social media in the
enterprise and participation and integration with externally facing enterprise-

Real-time Ramps up in late 2010. Look out for real-time collaboration: Google
Wave. In 2010, Wave's utility will become more apparent.


 Clouds: The cloud movement will see a major leap forward in the first half of
2010 with the launch of "Office Web Apps," free online versions of Word, Excel,
PowerPoint and OneNote released in tandem with Microsoft Office 2010.

Convergence conundrum: e-book reader is a fad--carrying an extra device is never
desirable, and the major factor preventing convergence is the lack of superior
screen technology.

 The cloud adoption trend will continue, and vendors without real software-as-a-
 service strategies will be even more challenged to compete.

Cloud platforms will allow ISVs to develop, market, and monetize cloud
applications at a dramatically faster rate than traditional ISV development.

Analytics go mainstream, to include marketers, risk managers and call center
staff..


Structural unemployment cuts of 2009 will not be reversed in 2010.


CRM investment continues in 2010 to help organizations identify and retain
profitable customers..

More organizations will restrict Facebook and SN sites that negatively affect

 With SAP ERP 6.0 or higher maintenance fees, it opens the door for on-demand
 ERP solutions and drives a faster decline in SAP revenues.


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.

the EU nor US governments have taken a closer look

every form of content (everything from news and TV shows to music, books and

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-

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?

 E Ink will lose its claim to near-100% market share for e-reader displays


Dual-screen mobile phones and netbooks will eat into e-reader demand.


Apps will make non-reading devices more e-book-friendly. Next year will see more
e-book apps on more devices.


eReaders will get apps, too. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Amazon launch a
Kindle app store, too.


Amazon will launch a suite of new touchscreen e-readers featuring touchscreens,

 B&N will steal market share from Amazon and Sony but Amazon will retain its
 dominant position as market leader.


 E-book content sales will top $500 million in the U.S



E-textbooks will become more accessible, but sales will be modest.

 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.

 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.

Machine-to-machine (M2M) applications and services . Consumer M2M applications
will cover remote monitoring of homes appliances automobiles.

Enterprise M2M will take off in focused vertical markets like healthcare energy
transportation.

Android will take 10% of the mobile device market in 2010 due to "heavy industry
support" from Qualcomm Verizon Motorola and Google as well as the growing
embrace of the open OS by developers.
About 15% of non-mobile employees in 2010 will pressure IT to support their

The good news for IT departments is that there won't be much of end-user
demand for the new operating system, so they can take their time to deploy.

PCs finally fragment as a platform - Netbooks, smart phones and traditional
laptops and desktops. Expect a lot of device overlap and confusion about
taxonomy.

"Tweener" devices will have their hype and then die.
