Logic, which recently acquired TeleCayman, is expanding its fibre network enabling the voice and data provider to offer the highest internet speeds on island and new services such as LogicTV.

The application of fun, play and passion that we find in games to a business environment will be one of the technology trends in 2012 according to Deloitte’s report Tech Trends for 2012 – Elevate IT for digital business”. Local number portability has been a long time coming, but what will it hold for the Cayman market? Eighteen months after the introduction of the iPad, 11 per cent of US adults own a tablet computer. More than half use the device to get news, but a majority is still not willing to pay for news content, according to a study of the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism in collaboration with The Economist Group.
