Welcome to the IT PRO midweek newsletter for Tuesday 11 March 2008.
With the disappointment of CeBIT well and truly behind us, the industry is getting back to the day-to-day basics of IT – new products and buying each other up.
We are only two days into the week and already there are rumblings that peripheral maker Logitech is attracting takeover interest from parties including Microsoft, a position the company is dismissing - for now.
Security is back under the spotlight, particularly with regard to online banking, which is subject to a new wave of convincing phishing attacks, while HSBC has run into a few problems over its website security certificate, something which has not helped user confidence.
All in all, it's been a bit of a gadget week, which is rather timely given the section below this. We've got news of cameras that can see through clothing, a study showing that technology is disrupting relationships and how we sleep, and more executive changes at mobile phone maker Motorola.
* Today also marks the launch of our new sister title iGIZMO, the world's first fully interactive digital magazine dedicated to consumer technology.
Delivered straight to your inbox every fortnight, iGIZMO is like a print magazine, a website and a TV show all wrapped up in one neat little package, with unbiased verdicts on all the latest kit, the latest consumer gadget news and hands-on advice.
It's free, and you can sign up now over at http://newsletter.itpro.co.uk/c/1ax58TxzdtPN0Zqh.
