» Never in Thai history has a story that didn't happen so dominate the news and clearly emerge as the Technology Story of the Year; just before the New Year, your TOT flipped a switch that started providing bandwidth of the third-generation kind in a couple of obscure corners of Bangkok, but in truth, 2009 was the year that Laos and Cambodia totally humiliated the telecoms state enterprises by leaving Thailand a far, distant last among Asian countries providing 3G service to yuppiephone subscribers.
Out with the old, in with the new
Outlook, Marius Murdoch, Published on 14/01/2010
» It might seem like the ancient past, but it wasn't so long ago that we lived in the dark ages of dial-up internet, floppy disks, pagers and fax machines. Luckily these old-hats died with dignity, and while we may miss the harrowing screams of connecting modems, good riddance to bad rubbish. But other technologies seem insistent on carrying on, despite smarter and more accessible alternatives gaining saliency in the new decade. What looked to be consumer mainstays seem poised for poor performance and obsolescence this year. Here's a list of some of the stale technologies of 2010.

Back to the future
Database, Published on 31/03/2010
» Don't panic, announced Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva, but in the next 60 days the government will "create a level playing field" for telecom companies and probably try to extract truckloads of money and turn back the clock on concessions granted by the state duopoly; Mr Abhisit continued to maintain that telecoms firms (translation: one telecoms firm) made money from changes during the Thaksin Shinawatra years; he said he wants to "unwind the concessions," go back to the future and probably send a huge bill to Advanced Info Service of Shingapore; Mr Abhisit said he envisioned one big concession contract covering all telecoms firms and saving the bacon of your slowly dying ToT and CAT Telecom. Wichian Mektrakarn, CEO of No 1 yuppiephone firm Advanced Info Service of Shingapore, explained that if Mr Abhisit succeeds in unravelling all concessions contracts and reverting to the early 1990s when they started to come into being, "the whole system will collapse." Finance Minister Korn Chatikavanij seemed to contradict the prime minister; he told Hong Kong businessmen it is "unlikely" the government will try to extract retroactive concessions payments.
