Tech Notebook - Even with a Verizon iPhone and momentum for Android

We've been writing a lot this week about Apple's iPhone -- and its availability next month through Verizon Wireless.

Without the iPhone, Verizon's lineup has been dominated by smart new phones -- such as Motorola Mobility's Droid X and Droid 2 -- that run Mountain View Internet juggernaut Google's Android operating system.

Even with a Verizon iPhone, Palo Alto industry analyst Canalys predicted this week, Google's Android army will grow more than twice as quickly as its major smartphone rivals. "With Android's momentum expected to stay strong, the installed base of Android-based smartphones and pads will rapidly increase," Canalys senior analyst Daryl Chiam said in an e-mail.

As of the third quarter of 2010, Android had an estimated 25.1  percent share of the global smartphone market, according to  Canalys, compared with 17.4 percent for Apple's iPhone.

Smartphone and computer makers including Motorola, HTC,  Samsung and Acer are planning numerous Android devices in  2011, Canalys noted.

"Vendors are trying to differentiate further on the hardware  front, with faster and more powerful processors, as well as larger screen sizes," Chiam wrote. "Last week, LG announced the first smartphone to support a dual-core processor, while Acer and Samsung showcased smartphones with screen sizes of 4.8 inches and 4.5 inches, respectively."

Other analysts expect Verizon will sell millions of iPhones this year, with many of those

buyers choosing the Apple device instead of Android phones or Research In Motion's BlackBerry devices.

Gleacher & Co. analyst Brian Marshall expects Verizon will sell 12 million iPhones this year, according to an e-mail this week. That's in line with estimates from other analysts. Ticonderoga Securities' Brian White, for example, forecast that Verizon could sell 11.7 million iPhones in 2011.

Is the West Coast the best coast? This week, our friends at Bloomberg News profiled venture capital firm Greylock Partners, increasingly a Silicon Valley powerhouse since it moved its headquarters to Menlo Park from Boston in 2009.

Greylock, the Bloomberg story noted, has invested in four big Internet upstarts: Palo Alto social networking powerhouse Facebook, Mountain View professional networking site LinkedIn, San Francisco social games developer Zynga and Chicago online daily deals site Groupon. Jeff Clavier, founder of Palo Alto-based SoftTech VC, even described Greylock as "the cool, new kid on the West Coast."

Oddly enough, though, Palo Alto venture capital firm Accel Partners (also a Facebook investor) revealed on the same day that it's opening a New York office. "We are seeing a rise of opportunities and increasing momentum, thanks to the convergence of retail, media, fashion and technology talent in the New York area," Accel partner Theresia Gouw Ranzetta explained in a news release.

Accel has already invested in 15 Big Apple-based companies, including such fashionable names as Etsy, Squarespace and Glam Media.

Real estate reviews: The Seattle real estate website is known best for its home value "Zestimates." (As for this writer, given how much his mortgage is underwater, he tries not to look.) This week, Zillow added a new feature: reviews and ratings of real estate agents.

CES likely to feature 4G, tabs, but not iPhone for Verizon

CES likely to feature 4G, tabs, but not iPhone for Verizon

- http://www.bestlaptopbattery.co.uk

Look for the Consumer Electronics Show opening later this week to be all about 4G devices and tabs, but not the much-anticipated iPhone for Verizon.

Sascha Segan reports in bestlaptopbattery.co.uk: “This is going to be a huge show for 4G.” He said Verizon Wireless (VZ) may introduce a half-dozen LTE phones and tablets. There also is chatter about 4G devices from Samsung, LG and HTC. T-Mobile likely will show off its HSPA+ phones and tablets.

"Certainly the Number One trend [at CES] will be tablets," said NPD Group analyst Stephen Baker in article by Glen Chapman at AFP. "I think every smartphone and PC (personal computer) company will either have one on their show floor; be showing them behind closed doors, or announcing things."

Anywhere from 40 to 80 tabs are expected to debut at CES, which starts on Thursday with over 2,000 exhibitors at the event in Las Vegas.

Expect a CES demo of Motorola’s (MOT) 10-inch tablet using Android Honeycomb from Google (GOOG). “We're going to see a lot more of the Island of Misfit Tablets—low-cost tablets of questionable quality based on Android Froyo software, which may end up on convenience store shelves or sold at a discount through computer retailers,” according to Segan.

Analyst Rob Enderle said: “We are going to be up to our armpits in crappy tablets, and I do mean crappy.”

Buzz has been building about the iPhone 4 coming to Verizon, ending the AT&T (T) monopoly. But don’t look for the announcement at CES, which is not a favored Apple (AAPL) venue.

Segan said, “Verizon is sinking a lot of time and effort into promoting LTE devices at CES. ForApple to step in and steal the stage would be getting that relationship off to a really bad start.”
