Review Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Home Networking 2004 Review and 2005-2009 Forecast and Analysis / IDC Research:This IDC study examines the growing home networking market in the Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) or APEJ region. The concept of networking one's home has slowly been getting more attention in APEJ households driven by the confluence of three factors: the steep rise in the number of residential broadband subscribers, the steady increase in multiple PC households, and the rapid increase in popularity of notebook computers among consumers. "Technology adoption has always been driven by applications, and home networking is no different. Throughout the forecast period, data-centric applications will drive PC networks to remain the dominant type of network installed in APEJ households," says Claudio Checchia, research manager, Consumer Services and Devices program, IDC Asia/Pacific. He further states, "However, by the end of the forecast period, IDC expects entertainment solutions and media-rich content to rapidly gain in popularity driving adoption of multimedia and entertainment networks across the Asia/Pacific region.

Review U.S. Prepaid Phone Card 2005-2009 Forecast and Analysis: Risks and Opportunities Post-Acquisition of AT&T and MCI / IDC Research:This IDC study analyzes the U. S. prepaid phone card market by sizing the complete prepaid revenue opportunity today and growth potential in the next five years. Using primary IDC research and secondary market data, this study provides key industry metrics detailing prepaid card penetration, usage, consumer demand characteristics, service provider market share, and growth trends. This study also analyzes competitive strategies of leading prepaid phone card providers. "After a decade of rapid market expansion, future growth in the U. S. prepaid phone card market can no longer be sustained by selling ever more cheap prepaid phone cards. SBC's and Verizon's respective acquisitions of AT&T and MCI during the first quarter of 2005 will further shake up competition in the prepaid phone card market. To survive, service providers must learn how to extend existing consumer relationships to gain a bigger share of the consumer prepaid budget. [+]

Review The 2004 IDC Professional Developer Model / IDC Research:This IDC study discusses the IDC Professional Developer Model, which presents a methodology for estimating the number of professional developers worldwide and in over 190 countries and the results of the model for 2001–2008. Vendors can use this study to help make decisions about where to focus marketing efforts for products used by developers. "In our 2004 iteration of the IDC Professional Developer Model, we see continuing indication that professional-developer hiring is a leading indicator of software spending growth," said Dennis Byron, IDC Application Deployment Software research analyst. "It is much like the way in which "tool and die" economic activity indicated up and downs in manufacturing in the United States historically.
