Microsoft shooting their own foot

Sadly S. Ballmer Microsoft's is pursuing a dead end strategy, he is stubbornly pursuing a Microsoft Tablet device while he instead should be worried about getting every company using their server operating system as well as having every computer user using their Office suite.

I consider that Microsoft should be focusing their efforts on having their developers focused on creation functionalities for the new devices in the mobile / tablet market. That will guarantee that households and companies will continue to use the reliability of windows applications such as office, messenger.

Stay tune for further reports in this technology market. If you want to read more about this particular issue, please go to pcworld.com and read the article:  Microsoft Needs a Tablet Strategy, Not a Tablet

3D Cameras Now Available!

How cool is to have 3D on your TV? I suppose most of us would answer that question with an immediate yes. However if having 3D TV is cool, can you imagine how cool would it be to be able to record your daily and family videos yourself?

Get ready, Panasonic will launch on October a camcorder and a lens (Lumix G-lens) that would let users to record any kind of videos on 3D. The price for the camera will be $1,400. For this particular purpose, Panasonic will launch their own lenses at the end to the year, but in the meantime they will use lumix lenses. Panasonic lenses are promised to change forever the 3D camcorders market.

Magic Trackpad by Apple

We have seen the wonders of the many other Apple products. Nevertheless the question for today is: How the Magic Trackpad is going to perform in the market?

I personally think, Apple's Magic Track pad is going to do very well but it is not going to replace the mouse. The reason why I think this is because as computer users we are used to use the mouse already. More, even though this a "new cool toy", laptop users consider their builtin mouse unconfortable when you really need to work and get results. Using a mouse increases the speed of our performance and don't think desktop users are going to change the confortness of their mice for a device that can be very nice to have but not productive in terms of time.

However, that doesn't mean that this device is not going to make in the market. In fact, given the large amount of lover of Mac, my guess is that we are going to be a large amount of these devices in the market pretty soon.

What are San Francisco Cell Phone users suppose to do with the new information?

San Francisco has taken an initiative that would make cell phone retailers include a radiation information of the device they are about to buy. While as explained by PC World, the law idea is understandable, the purpose of the idea is misleading. What are customers suppose to do with this information.

Important organizations and government have taken part in the situation. Nevertheless no one has taken into account what the consumer himself thinks about it and what benefits would it bring to society if the law is passed. PC world magazine states in its article "San Francisco's Cell Phone Radiation Law: Misguided at Best" also states that exposure to cellphone radiation and health problems still don't have any proven connection.

If a strong argument (scientific) proves any health problems the benefits for cell phones users will be unlimited as they would have cellphone companies produce better and safer to use devices.

Microsoft Future

On Thursday, the software giant Microsoft reported its quarterly earnings. The numbers were so good that no only have helped the stock market close, but also are about 28% percent more if compared to last years quarter. Furthermore, Microsoft have set and claimed another record, making their latest operating system, Windows 7, the fastest operating system sold in history. Nearly 10% of the world's computers run Windows 7.

Nevertheless, if the present is bright the future presents itself with some uncertainty. As the market keeps going towards mobile and portable computer, which are fields that Microsoft is not as solid as expected. In fact Steve Balmer, Microsoft's CEO, have announced some time ago that Microsoft have no intentions to compete anymore on the smartphones market.

According to PC World magazine "Microsoft sees its Bing search, Xbox Live, and budding cloud services as areas of growth--but they're not there yet."

Our best hopes for this big american corporation which is about to face some challenges.

Apple does not want to be responsible

Believe or not, Apple the company that was making everything good until its iPhone 4 is now making things all wrong. Who would have though about a good and profitable company like apple, that was always ahead of the market with edgy and stylish unique designs, would simply start fighting back with excuses and pointing the finger on someone else.

Well it happened, and sadly they just did in the worst possible way. They pointed the finger on all the other companies they directly compete with in the smart phones market. The not only were able to come up with a solution for the "deathgrip" but also unprofessionally and in a childish way the just tried to make their problem others' companies problem too.

We'll see what the future holds for the company that so many were in love and seemed to have a golden future in sales. It's really disappointing to see this situation as apple was meant to be one of the companies that was to discover the future of tech applets for the world.

The top 5 applets for the summer - according PC world

How many of us have though of being able to do some of the things that we currently do while we are swimming? Wouldn't it be cool to be able to take calls or even listen to music while you are swing the same way you would do it running?

Well those ideas are not anymore something crazy, in fact you can already buy them. For instance, there's a company called the Magellan's ToughCase which lets people take their iPhone into the water up to 30 meters. Nevertheless, if you actually don't care about bringing your cellphone with you to swim but you consider important to have music while swimming you there is a device called VBT waterproof headphones. This device can be used with the ToughCase to connect your iPhone/iPod with your headphones set; it also has an onboard mp3 player if you don't have an iTouch or iPhone, or if you consider the Tough case is not just for you.
