State Of The Market At MidyearVARBusiness has just released the results of its State of the Market Midyear Report -- a survey of almost 400 solution providers to assess the state of business this year, compared to the expectations recorded last winter in the State of the Market 2006 report.

Despite optimistic outlooks for 2006 in the annual survey, the first-half results show that sales fell short of expectations for 39 percent of service providers.
