New set-top boxes from Cisco's Scientific Atlanta business unit will be the first to be branded Cisco. Cisco has also released a new IP Home Gateway under the Cisco brand, a move that will inevitably re-ignite speculation that the Linksys brand under which Cisco has to date targeted the home and SOHO networking market is on the way out.

A new book on the history of the telephone is being lauded for revealing the "shocking truth" that Alexander Graham Bell plagiarised a key component of his invention from rival Elisha Gray. The book's author may have uncovered the vital damning evidence that eluded Bell's accusers over a hundred years ago, but there is little shocking in the allegations which were thoroughly aired and repeatedly tested in court several times in the late 19th century.

A new report claims to analyse the significance of Google's Android Linux-based mobile platform versus competitive platforms. It makes the headline-grabbing statement that unless Android is able to "galvanise the mobile Linux development movement" it will be obsolete before 2008 is out, but there is little indication that this report has the full measure to the mobile Linux movement and Linux-based competitors to Android.

After years of hype and unfilled expectations, 2008 could finally be the year that mobile WiMAX 'arrives'. The vendors are, as usual, bullish, but as 2007 draws to a close there seems to be cause for confidence.

In the Internet's age of innocence, just a few short years ago, Spam was just a nuisance: mostly it was trying to sell something and most of it came from people simply exploiting the ability of the Internet to deliver millions of messages from their computer at minimal cost.
