Today's Story Highlights

Sony's Foolish Failure to Learn From Microsoft's Mistake
Microsoft has learned a lot of very hard lessons over the last couple of
decades, and it continues to surprise and annoy me that other firms seem
to have the suicidal tendency to learn the same lessons the hard way. It
is far better and cheaper to avoid the mistakes of others, but firms
like Apple, Google and, most recently, Sony seem to want to experience
past Microsoft disasters first hand.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/84824.html

Companies Cheer Completion of Open-Design Transatlantic Internet Cable
Microsoft on Friday announced completion of the Marea undersea cable,
which stretches 4,400 miles between Virginia Beach, Virginia, and
Bilbao, Spain. A joint project of Microsoft, Facebook and global
telecommunication infrastructure company Telxius, the cable lies more
than 17,000 feet below the ocean's surface. It is the first cable to
link Virginia and Spain.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/84831.html

Ford Motor Puts Design Strategy Under the HoloLens
Ford Motor Company on Thursday unveiled details about its use of
Microsoft's HoloLens augmented reality technology in the automotive
design process. Ford's design teams have swapped out their clay-
sculpting tools -- a staple of the automotive world since the 1930s,
when Harley Earl introduced them at General Motors -- for mixed reality
headsets and visualization software.

Today's Story Highlights

Apple's Worthy iPhone 8 Models May Languish in X's Shadow
Reviews of Apple's new iPhone 8 and 8 Plus have been laudatory. However,
the reviewers can't seem to get their minds off the jewel of the Apple
universe, the iPhone X. Both the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are "awesome" and
better than last year's models -- but iPhone shoppers who want to be
part of the future will save their money and buy an iPhone X later in
the year, suggested reviewer David Pierce.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/84821.html

Is Packaged Entertainment Media Really on the Way Out?
As home video viewing patterns continue to evolve, one common prediction
is that packaged media is on its last legs. Streaming services have been
gaining market share. In fact, streaming media sales eclipsed sales of
DVDs and Blu-ray discs for the first time in Q4 2016 -- with discs
accounting for $5.4 billion in annual U.S. sales compared to the $6.2
billion haul for SVOD providers.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/84819.html

The New iPhones: Apple's Strangely Wrongheaded Pivot
It fascinates me that succession from a successful CEO to the chosen
successor almost always goes badly. This phenomenon isn't limited to the
CEO level -- I've seen highly successful CMOs followed by handpicked
successors who also seem to have no clue as to why their predecessor did
so well. I think it comes down to a lack of mentoring combined with
misconceptions.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/84809.html

reMarkable's Pricey, Paper-Like Tablet Ready to Ship
reMarkable on Monday will begin shipping what might best be described as
an "untablet" -- a device that is, essentially, an electronic piece of
paper. The company is proud of its paper tablet's simplicity, boasting
that no other tablet has fewer functionalities. reMarkable users cannot
install apps, watch videos or take photos. What they can do is read,
write and sketch on a paper-like surface.
