Smith Micro Software's Consumer Group Launches TuneRanger for Multi ...

Chances are you keep your iTunes music and video collection on more than one computer, so you already know how hard it is to keep them all up-to-date," said David Polzine, Director of Utility and Productivity Solutions for Smith Micro Software's Consumer Group, "Add a family to the mix and the task is virtually impossible to control, but with TuneRanger, you can manage all your iTunes-running computers on any network and synchronize music, videos and playlists with the click of a button. Album covers, lyrics and all other changes are updated seamlessly, while misplaced songs are located, un-owned copies purged and duplicates removed - always keeping only the best quality copy."

The Best Gadgets of 2006

No, the real war will happen over the cellular networks. That's why Apple's greatest threat isn't Microsoft. It's Nokia.

I'm bullish on Nokia's chances after spending the last week with the N91, part of the company's line of multimedia phones. Constructed of matte stainless steel with silver and black plastic highlights, the N91 looks like any other candy-bar-style handset, albeit with a bit of extra heft around the middle. The most visible difference is the group of playback controls—pause, rewind, etc.—that takes up the area beneath the screen. To make a phone call, you slide down these controls to reveal a standard keypad. The other big difference between the N91 and standard phones is on the inside, where Nokia has installed a 4-gigabyte hard drive in place of the typical low-capacity flash chip.


FRCH kicks off convention

�We all stand for election every day,� Tippmann said, referencing Procter & Gamble Co. CEO A.G. Lafley�s description of consumer products companies as candidates vying for consumers� voting dollars.

Tippmann said the consumer expects, and may sometimes even demand, at least four elements: an enhanced brand experience, the celebration of service, an exciting product and a proprietary language.

For instance, every time Christmas rolls around, Macy�s benefits from decades of consumer exposure to experiences that range from the Macy�s Thanksgiving Day parade to the movie Miracle on 34th Street and Santa Land at the company�s Herald Square store.

And while most firms cannot achieve such national recognition overnight, they can build toward that each day by focusing on value and by always striving to deliver unique goods and services, Lazarri said.

The 3rd Man Group has acquired online credit card fraud detection company, Early Warning UK. By adding Early Warning�s CardAware database to the 3rd Man�s SuperSearch system, which enables retailers to share information on high risk transactions, the move will provide on-line traders with a powerful fraud protection service.
