1. Can Research In MotionStill Hope to Make a Comeback?
It’s been more than a year since industry pundits have deemed Research In
Motion one nail away from being forever buried in a coffin, prompting more
and more consumers to sell used Blackberrysin anticipation of the
company’s eventual downfall. This is becoming more apparent, specifically
because of highly contrasting fiscal figures with Apple which have a lot to do
with the products to be launched by both companies within the year.
RIM made an arguably mediocre showing at last month’s BlackBerry World
2012 convention, with the BlackBerry 10, their latest mobile operating
system, being the supposed highlight of the show. The company is banking
on the BB 10’s virtual keyboard as the main selling point of their OS, which
really isn’t surprising for the company since keyboards have always been a
Berry trademark.

2. However, this was back when these keyboards were still physical. Now that
they’re otherwise, the Berry seems to have lost its one defining trait. As far as
highlights go, the rockin’ afterparty by the MartinezBrothers was more notable
than all the tech demos at the show put together, making a stronger case for
people to trade in Blackberry for something else.
I’ll admit that I initially thought of the BB 10 as a viable alternative (the virtual
keyboard notwithstanding) to the two more popular mobile OSes. However,
Apple’s iOS 6 presentation at the recently concluded World Wide Developers
Convention (WWDC) 2012 unmistakably left RIM in the dust. Despite the felt
absence of the iPhone 5, Apple more than makes up for that by showcasing
what the upcoming iGadgets will be capable of with the new mobile OS running
them.
Of the myriad features of the iOS 6 shown, two of the most noteworthy are the
Maps app and the new Siri. With Maps, Apple ups the ante for navigation
programs by implementing two key features. The first is the so-called “turn-by-
turn” navigation, which makes the onscreen map turn relative to the direction a
user is facing. The second is the Flyover mode, which is a rendering of a city in
full 3D, allowing a user to zoom in and out and fly all over the map to get a
better look at his desired destination.
As nifty as Maps sounds, it’s decidedly blown away by what the new and
improved Siri offers. Already an impressive technology to begin with, Siri further
expands her virtual assistant role by integrating herself more with the iGadgets’
many apps. Moreover – and if things go for Apple as planned – we may be
seeing iDevices mounted on car dashboards to assist drivers in every way they
can without the drivers having to take their eyes off the road. Imagine a real-live
K.I.T.T. (of Knight Rider fame); that’s how awesome Siri will be.
With Apple thinking out of the boxand going beyond the physical limitations of
their products to truly redefine the portable gadget experience, it shouldn’t
come as a surprise why they are leading the smartphone race.There are some
consumer that are waiting for iPhone 5 and they Sell electronics to earn money.
In the same vein, it shouldn’t surprise people if reports of trade in Blackberrys
