Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology US-TECH Summary Reuters - Tuesday, October 6 Send IM Story Print Ballmer sees Web search buys unlikely LONDON - Microsoft's <MSFT.O> Chief Executive Steve Ballmer does not expect to make acquisitions to help the company challenge Google's <GOOG.O> dominance in the Internet search market, he told Reuters on Monday. "No, I wouldn't expect it," he answered when asked whether acquisitions would be part of the strategy. Microsoft recently agreed a search partnership with Web company Yahoo <YHOO.O> after a long and unsuccessful struggle to buy the company. T-Mobile USA kicks off corporate Wi-Fi push LOS ANGELES - Deutsche Telekom's <DTEGn.DE> T-Mobile USA plans on Monday to start offering a wireless service for office workers, hoping to increase its presence in the corporate market as it chases larger rivals like AT&T <T.N> and Verizon <VZ.N>. T-Mobile USA, which focuses now on cost-conscious consumers, said its new service combines BlackBerry phones from Research In Motion <RIM.TO> with Wi-Fi -- a short-range radio technology -- and would help companies save money both on cellphone calls and calls from desktop phones. Vonage unveils mobile app for iPhone, BlackBerry NEW YORK - Vonage Holdings Corp <VG.N> plans to offer discounted international phone calls to iPhone and BlackBerry users, as the Internet telephony company aims to expand beyond the residential market. Consumers could save more than 50 percent for calls to dozens of countries if they download a free Vonage application to Apple Inc <AAPL.O> iPhone and Research In Motion <RIM.TO> BlackBerry devices starting on Monday afternoon, Vonage Chief Executive Marc Lefar said. Schmidt: Google-Apple board member should stay put WASHINGTON - Google Inc <GOOG.O> Chief Executive Eric Schmidt said former Genentech CEO Arthur Levinson should stay on the boards of both Google and Apple Inc <AAPL.O>, despite regulatory scrutiny. Schmidt said on Friday that Google and Apple easily passed an antitrust test for overlapping board members relating to revenue overlap. E-readers seen as holiday hit, presage tablet PCs SAN FRANCISCO - Electronic readers could be the hottest gift this holiday season as a new crop of portable media devices begins to join iPods and other music players as must-have tech accessories. The number of readers bought will be closely watched by industry analysts in advance of the expected emergence of multimedia tablet PCs, which Apple and others are thought to be working on and which could alter the competitive landscape. Amazon settles Kindle lawsuit over "1984" copy SAN FRANCISCO - Amazon.com Inc <AMZN.O> has settled for $150,000 a lawsuit brought by a high school student and another consumer who claimed the online retailer illegally deleted from their Kindle devices digital copies of George Orwell's "1984." The settlement, filed September 25, revealed that Amazon in September offered consumers whose books had been deleted a new free digital copy as well as $30. IBM takes on Google in business Web-mail market BOSTON - IBM <IBM.N> is introducing an inexpensive Web-based corporate email service that will compete with Google Inc's <GOOG.O> Google Apps, which has recently suffered several high-profile outages. International Business Machines Corp will likely try to capitalize on the damage that those outages have caused to Google Apps over the past year. Last month millions of business users could not access email for almost two hours. Finnish startup bets on universal media manager HELSINKI is an Internet-based application that connects with phones or digital cameras, storing all media in the same location and allowing it to be shared with different networks. "I have one interface, one window to manage all the content," Tero Salonen, chief executive of Linkotec said. "You have no interest to copy your content to seven places." Nokia Brazil brand battle goes to higher court HELSINKI - Finland's Nokia <NOK1V.HE> can continue to use its Ovi brand in Brazil for now, a court ruled on Friday, but the legal battle over its new services brand continues in the largest telecoms market in the Latin America. Brazilian telecommunications services company Ouvi Divulgacao e Marketing em Celulares Ltda says Nokia is abusing the Ovi brand in Brazil to compete directly with Ouvi, a brand the Brazilian company has used since 2004.
