What storage trends are you seeing in the SMB market and how is Iomega addressing them? We are seeing huge growth in network-attached storage (NAS) coupled in the SMB space with a requirement for enterprise level services. They are not getting those levels of service yet, predominantly due to costs. We are trying to bring these services down to SMB because we have been playing in that space for a long time. Small companies are in a situation where they lack IT knowledge, they lack the funds to have an IT headcount and they most likely have a lack of interest although they understand it is vital for them to have IT infrastructure in place. As an SMB, you want to invest your resources somewhere other than IT. The role we have as a company is to work out how we can bring those enterprise services and applications to SMB.
(AFX UK Focus) 2007-09-21 14:03 GMT: AT&T to expand in Fla. broadband market
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - AT&T Inc. announced that it will make a $750 million investment in broadband infrastructure in Florida as it seeks to woo customers from traditional cable companies in the race to beam TV and high-speed Internet into homes. The move announced Thursday follows the passage earlier this year of a new state law that makes it easier for telecommunications companies to get into the TV business. Gov. Charlie Crist joined officials from AT&T, the country's largest provider of broadband Internet and land and wireless phone services, for the announcement of the investment. The company has recently announced plans to spend hundreds of millions of dollars over the next few years in several other states as it takes advantage of laws similar to Florida's. The new law allows statewide franchises for providing cable television, rather than forcing companies to go through the local franchising process.
