RIM has been facing ups and downs in their company and trading since the start of 2011. Everyone knows that it was a bad year for RIM, very bad. The all new Blackberry Tablet didn’t work in the market and finally they ended up selling their Playbooks for discounted price. Also, their new range of Blackberry Smart phones could not create furor in the mobile market as Android and iOS was already ruling the market.

Recently it was reported that the company is again planning to make chief executive level shifts without any new strategic directions.  Rim stocks are also not going up and still RIM makers are not thinking of any great innovative strategy. God knows what they are up to!

With these changes, RIM also faced a showdown of about 8 percent in their stock prices. Earlier there was an instance, where the stocks were oversold that actually created short term edges and thus went higher and higher.  But now, things can’t go worse than this for RIM, as the stock’s latest rally into overbought field.

This is a very rare moment in the entire lifetime of Research in Motion as the conditions previously were low, but now they are going lower. Thus, this made sellers to finally put the stock down in an agitation of selling for trading on the first day of the week. Following the struggle of Research in Motion in the market, one thing is sure that every investor is going to think thousand times before investing their cash in this company.

Investors would surely follow the so called rule of buying stocks that are moving above 200/ day average. Investors would surely have lots of doubts in their minds related to Research in Motion’s slip in stock. Finally Research in Motion has entered the bear market territory of US trading market, and investors have lost all hopes of this company escaping this territory as soon as possible.  But it is said that the stocks which are running below 200 per day average are not able to cope up with the bear market territory tag.

And it is believed that even if Research in Motion fortunately gets out of this territory, it will surely make it to the top again. Let’s just wish them all the best! As it is observed that those companies who have luckily escaped this bear market territory have positively bounced back in the market. For instance, the Citigroup or the Bank of America made remarkable recoils in current week. Just like RIM, Citibank also faced the same condition, and their stocks were running lower and lower.

Siemens Canada Ltd. Won against the St. Louis-based cable maker Belden Inc. to acquire the RuggedCom Inc at a price of $33 per share. Previously Belden had offered a noteworthy price of $22 per share. Thus, finally RuggedCom Inc has merged with the Canadian communication leader Siemens Canada Ltd. This will help RuggedCom Inc to keep them intact and the company’s huge international operations will prove to be beneficial to them.

RuggedCom Inc. will merge with Siemens’ ongoing work on smart grid technologies which distributes electricity and various communication networks to industrial clients. The $440 million bid will be open for more than 35 days and then the bid will be closed at the end of March.

RuggedCom Inc is planning to add a different angle in network router and switches that are designed for places full of mess such as oil refineries, roadside traffic control boxes, military applications and power sub stations. But, RuggedCom Inc is going to maintain its ongoing personal sales, research and development, and production functions and will become the part of Siemens industrial automation division.

Siemens will try and innovate RuggedCom Inc while maintaining its original form with the help of Siemens’ international research and projects. Many analysts say that the value of this firm RuggedCom Inc can be valued for more than $35 per share. But it is reported that RuggedCom Inc had a talk with various parties before giving themselves up to Siemens Canada Ltd.

RuggedCom Inc is trading almost at the triple price since last September. Its share almost jumped up to 25 percent more prices when Siemens offered them $32.85 per share. The Ontario based organization that provides communications networking products and services for harsh environments has made up their mind to make a friendly deal with Siemens at a share price of $33 per share. RuggedCom Inc said that the previous offer was inadequate to fulfill the need of the corporation and its 360 employees. Other parties have 35 days to propose their price, and if they offer greater price than what’s offered by Siemens, the corporation will delete Siemens Canada Ltd. also from its list.

The reported revenue of RuggedCom Inc is about $94 million a year, so they didn’t agree to the deal placed by Beldens. Thus, Siemens also has a positive point in buying this company. Siemens can reach up to North America and Asia Pacific with an improvement in its router and switches. The German engineering company was attracted to the Canadian corporation because of its durable Ethernet communication products and network solutions.

Thus, Siemens will take over RuggedCom Inc to improve the quality of its products and services with the help of this outstanding data communications network system.

If all goes well from both the RuggedCom Inc and Siemens Canada Ltd., then they will surely become one by the end of march 2012.

It’s a red alert! The Twitter owners announced their new censorship policy on Thursday. The policy states that Twitter won’t allow some messages and tweets to be seen in some countries. The service may get spotty in various countries. They have taken this step related to censorship in order to comply with the rules and regulations of each and every country.

For example, tweets related to pro-Nazi topics will not be permitted in Germany whereas if you criticizing the government, you can’t view the tweet if you are in China. Thus, if Twitter is removing some comment, it will clearly indicate you on first hand that your tweet has been censored and that tweet or message will be forwarded to the Chilling Effects Clearinghouse that is into creating databases of all the tweets that are deleted.

Twitter has been very useful in protest, campaigns; it has also played a vital role in the Egyptian revolution and other Iranian protest during its 2009 election. Thus, with this censorship policy, it is surely going to disappoint many of the revolutionaries and campaigns out there.

Even after this policy, the tweeples have not stopped campaigning and protesting. Many of the tweets are coupled with #dontcensor tags in order to protest against this policy. Thus, it is very much clear that users do not like this very policy of censorship.

Thus, with this policy there will be more transparency in twitter and you will come to know whose tweet has been removed or deleted. If you tweet against some country, it won’t be seen in that country and thus, there will be no complaints.

This country-by-country basis tweet also created a buzz around the gay community. The gay community says that this decision is due to the SOPA and PIPA activists and thus, twitter has introduced this new policy of censoring tweets in some countries. As for now, China has banned this site, and it is temporarily not accessible in Egypt.

Thus, the gay community is worried that their LGBT tweets will be blocked in some countries and this will lead to decrease in communication between the LGBT activists in different countries. Hence, this censorship has been a great question of worry for communicating feelings and emotions in other countries if it’s not permitted in their rules.

Many of the reporters without border have condemned this decision of censorship and many other groups have started protesting with hash tags having #BoycottTwitter proliferated over the weekend written after it. Thus, many users have joined this online movement against the censorship of tweets.

Tweeples have been very much outraged by this decision and hence they are expressing their feelings and anger in form of their tweets or boycotting their account for sometime. Thus, it is so clear that the internet and its users hate censorship and now twitter has been the target of this hatred.  Let’s just hope users just cope up with this fact and accept censorship on tweets happily.

Apple is leading the mobile market with its brilliant products like iPhone, iPad, iPod, iMac, etc. People are totally enjoying all the extraordinary products and apps designed by Apple Inc. Apple Inc. is making use of its huge success in the market of mobile phones to disturb decelerated but largely money-spinning  industry of textbooks.

If we go with the reports, it is said that the most reliable technological company in the entire globe has announce on Thursday, that they are going to release the latest version electronic book software iBook 2 for the users of iPad.  With reports coming in about the release of their all new featured iPad3, it has been declared that they are going to be more innovative in their next version of iBook.

If you are lucky enough to have an iPad, then you do not need to carry textbooks to colleges and universities. You can just easily get textbooks from the all new iBook 2 and read them by paying the required amount. It is reported that Apple has joined hands with few of the biggest educational publishers of North America which also includes the Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, McGraw-Hill Cos. and Pearson.

With the all new upcoming iPad 3, you also get a surprise bonus of iBook 2 in it. Isn’t it an awesome idea? Apple has always tried to come up with creative, mind blowing and innovative ideas in their products, and this one also seems to boost up the sales of their product, iPad. You will find out that this iBook 2 will be competent enough to exhibit books along with videos and various other interactive features.

iBook 2 comes with all new section of textbooks and students can purchase this electronic and interactive version of their textbooks in less than $15. Also, in addition to this, Apple has also planned to release a free application that will allow anyone to design, write, etc. their own cook book, text book or something similar.

This attempt of Apple to sell electronic textbooks has been smartly planned entirely when the whole of traditional textbook industry is going through a period of vagueness even though it’s quite huge. It is noted that the textbook business in the United States is valued almost $10-billion.

Apple also released an app for iTunes U, which has been a guide for colleges to release video and audio starting lectures, through iTunes. The company is structuring its new offering as an answer to the difficulty of stationery, large, costly textbooks. But there are numerous purposes Apple stays to profit from substituting traditional textbooks with interactive versions planned exclusively for the iPad.

One thing is clear, these new textbooks by Apple Inc. are likely to boost up iPad sales in schools, and will also help to make ecosystem greener and encourage digital education on a large scale.

Initially when they started, they were together but as time passed, a division was created with two independent categories of Motorola Mobility and Motorola Solutions.

Motorola Mobility is one of the mobile companies designing and selling mobile phones all around the globe. I bet many Canadians must be using products designed by Motorola. While on the other hand, Motorola Solutions designed and manufactured infrastructural equipments for wireless network. This includes cellular transmission base stations, signal amplifiers, etc.

These home and broadcast network solution products also included digital video recorders, set top boxes and other equipments used for computer telephony, video broadcasting and HD televisions. Motorola is giving a tough competition to its rivals which are mainly Samsung, Videocon, and Panasonic in the line of television, video recorders, etc.

Motorola has business and government clients mainly for products like broadband systems and wireless voice, public safety communications systems, etc. All these are now part of Motorola Solutions. Only set top boxes and cable modem are excluded from this list.

Globally Motorola is in the top 100 companies and is the leading in offering embedded electronic solutions and integrated communication solutions. Motorola Mobility is ruling about 10% of mobile market all around the globe. It also provides cordless telephone a product which is leading its way in cellular telephones.

Motorola, like other smart phones, joined hands with Google’s operating system, Android to increase their mobile sales. Motorola was the first one to release this latest operating system, Android in their phone and named the phone as Motorola Droid in the year 2009. After that, all other companies like Samsung, HTC, Sony, etc embraced the all new operating system, Android.

Cable modem and set top boxes are added in the Motorola Mobility section along with Motorola handsets. As of now, due to a lot of traffic in the mobile market, the sales of Motorola have crashed down. But in spite of all these problems, Motorola is still standing upright as a mobile company and changing their designs and configurations according to the technology.

Motorola is also into sponsoring various events and matches. Many celebrities have been the brand ambassadors for the company’s mobile phones and helped Motorola to sell their products. Motorola has released many products till date. Let’s just summarize some of the best products è

Laptops :

ML910
MW810
And many more…

Cameras :

HMVC3075
HMVC3020, etc.

Mobile phones:

Motorola Gleam EX212
Motorola EX109
Motorola WX265
And many more…

Thus, you can surely have a Motorola handset for yourself if you wish to have a phone with jam packed features at cheaper rates. Motorola prices are much cheaper than other mobile companies and thus, may be this is the reason why people still opt for buying Motorola phones.

All of us are well aware of the Android operating systems coupled with smart phones of companies like Samsung, LG, HTC, Sony Ericson, etc. It makes you feel more lively  with its simple, smart and beautiful apps.

Android is software for mobile phones that features three main components:

• Operating system
• Mid ware
• Important applications

Coming to the general knowledge, Android is an operating system made up by Linux for mobile devices such as tablets and smart phones. It is co- partnered by Google as an open handset alliance.

This system has a huge community of writers that provide their ideas about various applications in a modified version of Java. Then these Apps can be downloaded by the Android users from the online stores like Android market or some other third party sites.

The Android market is an online store that is run by Google with a huge collection of Android apps. Almost 10 billion apps were downloaded till the end of December 2011. From that, millions of apps were downloaded before the New Year’s week that is right from Christmas holidays.

It has also been listed as the largest selling Smartphone platform all around the globe. According to research, almost 700,000 devices were activated till the end of December 2011. You can easily browse through all the apps in the Android market and shop there and then.

Android has become a biggest hit among the age group of 16 to 30 years old. Many of the smart phones are earning loads of profit due to Android OS in them. There have been millions of app downloads happening every year all around the globe. Android brings to you the power of web and Google right away in your hand through various devices like smart phones, tablets, etc.

Android is full jam packed with the following features:-

• Incredibly fast browser,
• Simple mode to link up and share,
• Cloud syncing,
• Multitasking,
• Google apps,
• Customized home launcher,
• Different widgets,
• And much more…

The list goes on and on. You can’t count the number of mind blowing features Android offers you with. Also, if you notice, Android phones are cheaper than their other opponents that cost you big bucks for just a mobile phone. It is an open platform for using various apps and most of them are free.

But on the contrary, there is a negative aspect of Android too, you need to log on as an administrator and install each and every program in different ways in different phones unlike Blackberry or Apple iPhone. Also, if you are a person who is very much fond of fiddling with your phone then you should surely stay away from Android devices.

All in all, Android is very much handy if you are a gadget freak. You can just buy a smart phone starting from 8k and make your way to the best selling operating system in the world.

Yes. You will find all these latest most up-to-date gadgets and gizmos in the world tech fest currently going on in Las Vegas.  It is said to be the Consumer Electronic Show 2012.

The Consumer Electronics Show 2012 is that is going in full swing jammed up with the all new latest gadgets and devices entering the tech world.

Consumer Electronic Show, this year had different TV makers showing off their new upcoming models. I bet if you go for the show, you are bound to get lost in the entire world of gizmos.

For instance, LG has successfully launched its television with Google TV software that will be released in U.S may be in the middle of this year. There have been so many television companies making various announcements, it is very challenging to keep up with all of them.

All in all, I would like to say that, don’t be sad if you missed it this year, but the next time you visit Las Vegas, make sure you plan your trip during the beginning of the year.

Earlier, Samsung was the largest phone maker in its origin country, South Korea. But at a later stage, that is now it is globally successful in the field of electronics. Initially, they started with manufacturing of television and electronic computers, but as days passed, with the development in technology, they stepped out in the whole new market of mobile phones.

Samsung is also in to the production of cameras and tablets. This company is giving a very tough competition to South Korea’s second leading handset manufacturer LG. Samsung is leading the global market by offering a huge variety of high-tech electronic and digital products.

Not only mobile phones, but Samsung is also into the business of semi conductors, storage and printing solutions, set top boxes, etc. Samsung has been leading the market of LCD’s AND LED’s and memory chips since years and years ago.

I bet once you use a Samsung product, you will never turn your head to another company unless you are bored of using all their products. The company is going on manufacturing new and new products every year without even bothering if the product is a success or a failure. But fortunately, from last two years, that is 2010-2011, the company’s success graph has climbed various ladders with the new operating system in their Samsung Smartphone.

Android is the super powerful system you will find in every Samsung smart phone whose demand is increasing day by day.

Samsungs offers with a wide range of mobile phones as well as smart phones. Their list of mobile phones and smart phones include è

• Corby II,
• Samsung Champ,
• Samsung Hero,
• Samsung Monte,
• Samsung Chat
• Samsung Galaxy series,
• Samsung S II
• Samsung Ace,
• And many more….

Samsung is developing more and more since last ten years. The company is also a tough competitor to their Japanese opponents in the camera and television market. Chiefly, Samsung focuses on four biggest areas, namely è

1. Semi conductor,
2. Digital media,
3. LCD Digital Appliances,
4. Telecommunication Networks.

The digital media field includes products such as computer devices, monitors, laptop computers, laser printers, and other consumer entertainment devices like MP3 players, DVD players, camcorders and consumer durables like refrigerators, air conditioners, etc.

Whereas Telecommunication Network covers mobile phones, smart phones, tablets, memory chips, Bluetooth and headset. Storage devices, smart cards, optical disc drives, etc. all come under the area of semi conductor.

Samsung LCD digital Appliance mostly concentrates in areas of TFT-LCD and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) section for televisions, laptops and desktops.

All in all, Samsung is striving very hard to reach the no. 1 position in the field of electronics and media. In the year 2012, we will not be surprised to see many more upcoming products released by Samsung. Just wait and watch!
