Cornered! is a blog devoted, most of the time anyway, to telecommunications: local and global issues, technology, people and trends from the perspective of someone who's been reporting, analysing and commenting on the industry since the dark ages (BC - before competition). Sometimes serious, sometimes flippant, sometimes frivolous. Controversial, analytical, informative, amusing, but never boring; a vehicle for examinations of important issues and observations on my encounters and experiences in an industry where polarised views and hyperbole are the norm.

Linksys also announced The WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router; WRT160N Wireless-N Broadband Router; WUSB600N Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Notebook Adapter; WEC600N Dual-Band Wireless-N ExpressCard Adapter and WGA600N Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming Adapter and Linksys EasyLink Advisor, an enhanced network setup and management tool that simplifies the process of setting up home networking devices and helps ensure that all devices and connections are secure. All are or will be on sale soon in the US, and prices have been announced. No date for APAC availability has been given. All these new products are designed to exploit the rapid merging of the home entertainment and home computing/networking markets. Chambers said six months ago that the brand recognition enjoyed by Linksys in the US was little advantage elsewhere. Cisco/Linksys aims to secure a leading position globally in the growing integrated home technology market so it would seem that any move to kill the brand and replace it with Cisco would be best made soon, or not at all. |
