Lost ANOTHER prototype?
So, Apple lost yet another iPhone prototype.
This is NOTHING new.
Apple pulls this same stunt every year an iPhone is scheduled to be released. It never fails that a few months before the actual release an Apple employee is in a bar and happens to misplace the new design that the company has brewing. For this to happen, seemingly on cue, before every release this can be nothing other than publicity for the California phone manufacturer. I wonder how hard will Apple try to get the phone back this time; with rumors of Apple attempting to pay people off for the device there must be something they are trying to keep under wraps.
Bottom line: Apple needs to try a new discrete way of getting their product noticed, but THIS is getting old.
T-Mobile Acquisition in Question?
AT&T, the nation’s #2 wireless carrier next to the behemoth Verizon is trying to soak up the #4 T-Mobile in an attempt to provide a larger service area to its subscribers. However, that is ONE way to look at it. On the other hand, many analysts can agree that combining to poorly ran networks just wouldn’t work out.
The U.S. Justice Department wants to block this acquisition because they believe that this would be unfair to the consumer by lessening the competition and would allow AT&T(and possibly Verizon) to further raise wireless prices, simply because there would be no other true competitors.
Complaint listed below:
This all comes as good news to me, as I have seen the woes of AT&T subscribers. But what would you do if your company only made it because of Apple’s iPhone. On the other hand, since Apple isn’t exclusive with the iPhone anymore, there really isn’t anything keeping AT&T users from switching to a more reliable network….
Verizon anyone?
Steve Jobs steps down!
Is this the end of an era? If so, it has truly been one of the most remarkable. I am no Apple fan-boy by any means; however, anyone can take a notice that the name Steve Jobs in synonymous with Apple.
It has been confirmed that the COO of Apple, Tim Cook, will be taking over as Jobs will take on a more meager position within the company. So, what does this mean for the top valued corporation in America?
I have always been a firm believer that Jobs always played a large role in how Apple operated — wanting to close it’s customers in and being afraid of competition. Will Tim Cook be the same tenacious leader or will Apple be more formidable now?
The End of WebOS
HP’s WebOS is finally dead. This comes as a huge surprise to me.
Why?
Let’s face it but WebOS was no iOS or Android, but when it came to a beautifully presented and stylized mobile operating system HP nailed it. The user-interface of WebOS was beautiful, the aspect that held this mobile operating system back is that there was no initial “call to action” or need to have it. When I first heard of the Palm Pre and initially got to go hands on with the device, I was mystified. It completely blew my Samsung Omnia with Windows Mobile 6.5 away. WebOS multi-taksed in a very controlled way that didn’t cause terrible slowdowns or random crashes.
WebOS Downfalls:
- Released initially to one carrier
- Released on one device
- No large fan-base
Bottom line: It is sad to see HP give up on WebOS, but for now this is the end.
