The Unseen Leak: Faxes in the Era of Sarbanes-Oxley
Since the advent of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX), publicly traded
companies have spent considerable time, effort, and expense to develop and
implement new and tighter processes, documentation and reporting
infrastructures.
This white paper examines the issues surrounding faxing in a SOX context,
and how companies can use Internet faxing technologies to plug a leak they
may not even realize they have.

Cingular details steep price for Apple's iPhone
In addition to the $500 price, iPhone users will have to sign a two-year
contract with Cingular if they want to get their hands on the much-awaited
device.

The iPhone Idea
Frankly Speaking: Frank Hayes says Apple's iPhone was developed in a bubble
and only now will get input from users -- and that model won't work for IT.

Best of show: Our favorites from CES 2007
The most talked about vendor and products were missing, and the best gadget
came from a surprising vendor. It was a peculiar, and peculiarly rewarding,
Consumer Electronics Show. Here are the highlights.

Nine Steps to Effective Networked Unified Storage Consolidation
Networked storage consolidation is designed to significantly reduce the
escalating cost of storage systems. More storage targets can be consolidated
in fewer, larger storage targets, reducing costs and management. This nine
step plan delivers payback in reduced headaches, saved time, lower costs and
decreased back-end work, and will prove well worth the trouble.

Hugely disappointed by the iPhone
So the iPhone was announced last week, and while there's lots to like, there
are many elements which for me either don't fit, or that I would have
preferred to see in a separate device. Let's take a look at the detail.

I can see why hackers are drooling over iPhone
After the Apple lawyers get the legal issues ironed out over the use of
Cisco's iPhone name (hey, Apple, money talks), the next thing Apple needs to
do is make sure the darn thing is as secure as possible. If this product
takes off like I think it will, hackers will be more than happy to focus
their sights on this next generation communication device.

We HATE the iPhone (and toddlers+paint=trouble)
Hogwash! It's IT Blogwatch, in which the iPhone backlash continues. Not to
mention why you shouldn't leave a gallon of paint with unsupervised
toddlers...

How much did Cingular pay for iPhone?
Two iPhone-related comments. First, maybe the most important way iPhone
will help Cingular is with its name change to ATT. Second: How much did
Cingular have to pay Apple for this deal?
