Business Phone System Reviews | SE Telecom

Lately there have been a lot of discussions throughout the media about which the best touch screen phone on the market is, and which the best operating system for a cellphone is. There is a very big and tough competition for that and leading in the race are Android and I mac. Android, the leading operating system found in cellphones and even some net books and readers have been adopted by many companies and are being used. However the imac and Mac software is switched just and just to Apple company products like the iphone, ipad, ipod and the various product lines coming from the apple company.

The Mac software has created a huge buzz on the market field today due to the eye catching simplicity of the applications it provides combined with the beautiful user interface it provides on its devices. With 5 versions of Apple iphone coming on the market, Apple already has a competitor – the cellphone giant nokia in the race for the world’s best smart phones available on today’s market. However the iphone 4s has competitors now and that’s from the various devices which run on the android platform.

Nokia also doesn’t stay far behind now in the race. To compete with the iphone 4s, nokia plans to launch Nokia’s first WP7 phone. There has been a lot of news on the internet related to this. The news relates how it will compete with the cellphone giant iphone 4s. The phone that is the new nokia wp7 entering the competition to compete with the iphone 4s is believed to have been named as “Sea Ray”. According to the news there are images which define the cellphone as a candy bar phone pretty much same as the iphone 4s. In comparison with the new Smartphones being launched in the current year, this phone has a little odd look. The phone has a flat bottom like its previous old model of nokia n9 and has curvy sides on the corners. The thing that offsets this is the matte color finished look it posses.

When all the cellphone companies are upgrading their products looks in order to impress and rather confuse the customers from choosing the cellphone designwise, Nokia comes across as a losing opponent. New cellphones from companies like Motorola, apple, Samsung have greatly improved their building tactics and look to fit with the audiences’ choice in the market. However nokia still chooses to bring cellphones in the hard plastic range and not upgrading them to the metal finish or even the rubberized back which the blackberry offers even with a low price as compared to the bulky costly nokia handsets.

However it can be concluded from the given explanation that no wonder nokia launches a new cellphone in the coming months to compete with the enormously feature packed iphone 4s, but there’s a 50-50 chance it would be able to compete with the iphone 4s due to the looks and of course due to the features.

RIM’s Berries got crushed spreading its color all around the world. The color remained strong for three days and began to fade gradually. People were not too happy to get colored in black. The black out struck about 6 am ET on Monday the 10^th of October 2011. First many of the service users thought that there was some problem with handsets. As the news broke about the mass disruption, people started pointing fingers at the company Research In Motion, RIM. For four consecutive days almost all the BlackBerry users the world over, barring those from Canada and the U S, could not use their GPS applications including e-mailing. The first official statement from RIM in connection with the temporary suspension of services could come only on the second day because RIM’s co-CEO Jim Balsillie and other executives were in Dubai for the annual GITEX electronics show when the outage occurred.

The early news breaker was Vodafone Egypt’s Khaled Hegazy, “there is a problem with the servers in Canada which is affecting service”. Initially RIM did not give an explanation for the fault. Signal bars on the handset showed only one bar indicating very dim service with which some users could manage sending and receiving messages that took too long than usual. RIM conveyed through email to the Canadian press early on Tuesday that the services would be restored as soon as possible, but hours later again flashed a message submitting that the problem still persisted.

Completely affected subscribers were mostly in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, India, Brazil, Chile, and Argentina. For the first day people did not mind the interruption thinking that there must be technical problem at the service provider’s end. By the middle of second day people started to lose temper, not because of the blockage but because there was no word of information from the company about the problem, leave alone an apology. Those who had access and time began spitting their anguish through all the means and ways. Most reactions were passed through twitter. All they wanted to know was why the company was taking so long to resolve the problem.

It was on late Tuesday evening that RIM first came out with an apology and revealed the reason for the suspension of services. It was the first time the company offered an explanation of the outage since problems first occurred Monday morning.

RIM apologized for “any inconvenience,” only after the anger of the users reached the boiling point when expressions of condemnations got more and more acute and straight forward.

Research in Motion Ltd., RIM said the disruptions were the result of breakdown of infrastructure. A back-up switch did not synchronize the data causing a huge piling up of data. We are now working to clear that backlog and restore normal service as quickly as possible,” the company messaged in brief.

The company began transmitting message at short intervals with the view to throw mud over people’s angry fire. Our engineers are turning every stone to find the cause of the problem and as soon as the problem is tracked down we shall restore the services. “We apologize to our customers for any inconvenience, and we will continue to provide updates as new information becomes available.”

The black color of the berries was washed on Thursday 13th October – 10:00 (GMT-5).

Via a Conference call the RIM Co-CEOs confirmed that the BlackBerry services were restored. “We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.” Patrick Spence, RIM’s head of global sales and regional marketing “We know we’ll have to work to build back that credibility.”
