Ipad Multi Touch |
Not long ago, Apple fans rejoice in each fraction of a percent of computers in the company gained market share. If Mac sales rose 3.5 percent to 3.7 percent, which was a big deal - a sign that I could live another day.
Today, Apple dominates the shelves IPAD, selling all the other competitors, at least potentially so 20:01 02:01 ET. Figures like that would be more accurate to say that there is no market shelves, not only the IPAD market. Samsung, HTC, HP - none of this mass society can make the minimum impact on consumers.
But if a company can have on Amazon, which is expected to release a tablet PC before Christmas. They have experience in the construction of devices consumers buy and love the Kindle, and the crux of the world's largest e-commerce. It is not easy for them, because the Head Start Apple, the brand recognition and the massive support for developers, but there are three things that would be wise to:
1. IPAD ribs. At 399 pounds, is too out of reach, and less expensive - and yes, maybe bigger, slower and less sexy - a device that costs just £ 250 are sure to find millions of fans.
2. Keep the focus on reading, and the media. Amazon's market leading e-book and are strong in roads in the sales of music, film and television. If we can improve the iPhone in the life of the battery, which will have at least one advantage, which is important for some. Do not try to beat the iPhone at its own game
Throw your weight around third. Amazon size means it can be writers, developers and production companies offer they can not refuse, they are exclusive distribution contracts requirements or discount (which they already have the controversy over their App Store).
When Amazon announced the tablet, it is true that some experts are quick to declare that it should be the end of Apple, especially now that Steve Jobs left. How could respond to a competitor in the mass market, without their great leader? Could this be the first major test of its new general manager, Tim Cook?
The answer is no.
It is no secret that the Amazon was planning a rack for at least the last two years, depending on their jobs, Android App Store, and the simple fact that they are not stupid. And Apple is used to plan the future - General iPhone components are tested at least two years, and their designs must be locked out months in advance.
While Apple's open secret sometimes leads people to believe they are creating products at the drop of a hat, their complex networks and global manufacturers, suppliers and integrators the means they have a product that comes from the pipe well with two or three years from now. In other words, Apple already knows how he will react to the Amazon with the tablets and 3 4 IPAD IPAD. There is no doubt that it will diversify into high-end versions and low range, and Steve Jobs have participated in these plans.
Of course, you may be wondering what will happen when the tube is full, Apple products are just "magic" that Steve Jobs has to be imported? We need to see, but it left a very strong team, such as Jonathan Ive, the industrial designer, iMac, iPhone, iPhone and iPad, Forstallee Scott, the man behind the Mac OS X and IOS - and Apple's new CEO, Tim Cook.
Remember that the global network of manufacturing and logistics - which allows Apple to release its competitors and, miraculously, the production volumes of new equipment and the profit margins that others only dream about? It was created by Steve Jobs, Tim Cook is all that, according to information.
