Review Worldwide PC Market: 2Q05 Review / IDC Research:This IDC study reviews the performance of the worldwide PC market during the second quarter of 2005 (2Q05). The study looks at the market performance of desktop and portable PCs as well as x86 servers in major geographies, including the United States, Western Europe, Japan, Asia/Pacific excluding Japan (APeJ), and the rest of the world (ROW). Details on unit shipments, market value, and average selling prices (ASPs) are provided, along with a review of the competitive performance of the top PC vendors. "The worldwide PC market saw a remarkable surge in growth during the second quarter of 2005, reflecting both underlying demand as well as a dynamic competitive landscape. An abundance of promotions offering low-cost systems helped boost overall volume, particularly in the consumer segment. However, it will be difficult to sustain these growth rates in the foreseeable future particularly because there is a risk of rising cost due to some component shortages and rising oil prices. Inventory management and competitive pricing along with changes in growth by region present both challenges and opportunities to PC vendors. " — David Daoud, analyst, United States Quarterly PC Tracker and Personal Computing Program.

Review Western Europe Videogame Console Forecast and Analysis, 2004-2009 / IDC Research:IDC's Western Europe Videogame Console Forecast and Analysis provides an assessment of the gaming hardware market in Europe. The study presents regional forecasts of unit shipments, market value, and installed bases by system. Qualitative analysis highlights key trends in the console and handheld sectors and assessments of the new products due to launch in the region during 2005 and 2006. "In 2005, the handheld sector of the videogame console market will witness fundamental change as capabilities evolves beyond gaming and usage extends past the traditional market of children and young adults. This will result in a step-change in the level of shipments in the sector and open up new revenue streams for vendors. The console market will record a second year of declining shipments, although growth will return in 2006 as competition between the next-generation of systems ramps," said Jason Armitage, senior research analyst, European Consumer Devices.

Review New Zealand Fixed-Line Telecommunications 2004 Market Analysis / IDC Research:The New Zealand telecommunications market is in the process of a fundamental transformation — one that is seeing the waning importance of the traditional voice mainstay of the fixed-line carriers Telecom NZ and TelstraClear. In counterweight to the associated depletion in calling revenue however is the growth of the mobile, Internet, and solutions segments which both operators are harnessing in earnest as they prepare to best position themselves across a long-term adjustment phase spanning ICT convergence. This IDC study analyses key trends, activity, and strategic responses in the evolving telecommunications market including: The competitive, technological, and regulatory developments affecting fixed-line calling revenues for the incumbent operator Telecom NZ and primary entrant TelstraClear Activity and interplay amongst the major players in the fixed-line calling market including tier 2 participants such as CallPlus, Compass Communications, WorldxChange, Ihug, and Zintel Strategic responses to the declining significance of fixed-line telephony including acknowledgement of the role and importance of Next Generation fixed-line and mobile networks and associated value-added services and the increasing emphasis on content and entertainment provision "New Zealand is accelerating towards a very different telecommunications environment. We are seeing diversification and the de-emphasis of traditional fixed-line telephony as mechanisms changing the business profiles of industry participants in their drive towards continual relevancy and growth. When powerful phone companies say they are no longer phone companies, you know the IT service providers have reason to be anxious," states Christopher Loh, senior analyst, Telecommunications, IDC New Zealand.

Review Worldwide Tape Drive 2005-2009 Forecast and Analysis / IDC Research:This IDC study analyzes and summarizes the dynamics associated with the tape drive industry and its vendors. Actual shipment data is provided for the period 2003–2004. The document forecasts 2005–2009 market revenue, shipment volume, and ASVs. In addition, it discusses and summarizes various metrics (e. g. , capacity, ASVs, and vendor shares) specific to each market segment and industry driver. Finally, near-term and long-term expectations for demand, vendor execution, and significant industry dynamics are offered, as are suggested strategies for industry participants. "We expect disk backup systems will continue to put pressure on tape drives in the entry and low-end markets," said Robert Amatruda, research manager, Tape And Removable Storage. "However, the introduction of enhanced disk-based backup products will augment midrange and enterprise tape drives, especially in tape libraries and automation. We believe the economics of high-capacity tape drives are well suited for archive and information life-cycle management. [+]".

Review Adverse Event Reporting and Pharmacovigilance: Making Drug Safety Happen / IDC Research:Life Science Insights believes that pharmacovigilance risk management will be one of the fastest-growing application areas in the drug development arena in 2005, with an estimated CAGR of 8–12% from 2004 to 2008. Driven by growing interest among regulators, consumers, and the medical community, drug safety is rising in both importance and visibility to drug manufacturers. The ability to predict and thereby prevent catastrophic drug safety failures is the goal of all adverse event reporting and pharmacovigilance risk management activities. According to analyst Judy Hanover, "Pharmacovigilance technology is still in the formative stages, but it has the potential to prevent future catastrophic drug safety failures. ".

Review Western European Home Computing: What Will Drive The Next Wave of Consumer Spending? / IDC Research:The Western European consumer personal computing market has undoubtedly enjoyed a healthy uplift over the past 12 months. Regionalized economic factors and consumer market conditions have combined with an overall rebound in the PC market and rapidly declining average street prices to drive a consumer PC sales resurgence. The consumer PC market currently accounts for close to 40% of PC shipments in Western Europe, so its importance cannot be underestimated. Growth has been driven by booming notebook sales to home users as consumer electronics convergence fuels high levels of interest in the market surrounding new and exciting consumer technologies. Currently accounting for 36% of PC shipments, notebook sales will account for 53% by 2008. However, the desktop will remain at the heart of home digital entertainment. The retail channel has played an extremely important role in driving down prices, fuelling competition between the A-brands and white-box vendors. The development of Media Center oriented machines and the transformation of the desktop PC into a set-top box provide important considerations for future growth. "As the lines between home computing, mobility, consumer electronics and digital entertainment become blurred, vendors must seek to make their consumer computing messages as simple and coherent as possible, while at the same time ensuring that they are offering an attractive and price-competitive proposition to the end user," said Ian Gibbs, a senior research analyst with IDC's European Personal Computing Team.

Key supply-side market trends and user adoption dynamics are also discussed. "The next generation of distributed computing has emerged in the form of Web services and as such must coexist with previous generations of technology. This is indeed one of its widest appeals. What is apparent is that Web services are expected to become even more pervasive throughout the computing stack, adopted by technology vendors that then proliferate the use and consumption of Web services via integrated solutions more so than enterprises addressing all the development and processing complexity directly.
