The company is expected to announce its newest IP router at month's end, but analysts say they aren't expecting much of an immediate effect on the market. Cisco's new router, code-named HFR for Huge Fast Router, has been one of the most anticipated product announcements in the networking market. But analysts now say they don't expect the upcoming addition to Cisco's routing family to have much of an effect in the market right away. For one, details of the upcoming product suggest that it won't increase performance much beyond currently available technology from rival Juniper Networks, which has been selling its ultra-high-end Internet Protocol routers for two years. Second, Cisco's first release of the product will likely be missing several key software features. And third, because the device leverages a new version of Cisco's operating system software, it will have to go through a rigorous testing cycle with customers.

New U.S. guidelines meant to free up wireless e-mails with attached photos and videos are getting a mixed reception from carriers. Two cellular trade groups, 3G Americas and CDMA Development Group, this week released the guidelines, which describe how cell phone carriers that use incompatible standards can exchange photo, video or audio e-mails. The guidelines are getting a mixed reception, however. AT&T Wireless, T-Mobile USA and Cingular Wireless, which all use the GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) standard, are enthusiastic supporters. But a representative for Verizon Wireless, which uses CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) technology, was noncommittal Tuesday about whether the carrier would adopt them.

The SSL VPN market, once filled with only start-ups, is now dominated by several large companies such as Cisco Systems, Juniper Networks, Nokia and Nortel Networks. Check Point has already attempted to enter the market twice. It introduced its first SSL VPN product in July 2002, and then relaunched it again in November 2003, promising customer availability by the first quarter of 2004. But to date, competitors say they've never come up against Check Point in a customer account. The company wasn't even mentioned as an SSL VPN player in a research report published by Gartner in April. Gartner identified 16 companies in the SSL VPN market and established NetScreen Technologies--recently acquired by Juniper--Aventail and Nortel as leaders.
