It's been rumored on and off for a few weeks now, but today RIM finally confirmed that its upcoming PlayBook tablet will indeed support apps built for Google Android.
It's no great surprise to anyone who actually thinks about it, but a new report by Nielsen claims that Android is the number one smartphone OS in the United States with iOS and BlackBerry joint second.
2011 is going to be the year of the dual-core smartphone according to industry website DIGITIMES.
The original iPhone caused internal panic at RIM according to a former employee. RIM allegedly held several meetings the day after the iPhone was announced. The employee revealed that the BlackBerry maker accused Apple of lying about the iPhone as it was impossible for phone with such a large screen to last a useable lifespan.
The highlight of Apple’s Q4 earnings call today was Steve Jobs surprise appearance where he went on-air to slam Google’s Android, RIM and other rival Tablet makers.
Did you know? Apple is worth more than Microsoft! As of writing, Apple is worth a whopping $262.53 billion dollars while Microsoft: $212B. One of the bigger reasons for its increasing stock worth is the iPhone - a smartphone introduced back in 2007 that literally revolutionized the cell phone market. Today, the iPhone is used as a benchmark, as a standard by which the quality of other phones are measured.
