In this respect between Microsoft and Apple can put an equals sign, and the privilege can afford only a few companies, including Google, Samsung and Blackberry (formerly RIM). Only that Bada OS has basically non-existent and only ongoing work on Tizen, and the operating system BlackBerry OS 10 copes poorly with gaining popularity.
Best situation is with the condition of the BlackBerry, which after failures looking for a way to survive and the investor. Support podupadaj?cemu concern in Canada is by Microsoft to provide portal Bloomberg, who wants to buy the said company. Apparently, the current head of Microsoft – Ballmer, carried out with the intention for a long time, but waited for the right moment, which just arrived.

And so to me … (by Toadstool | Date: 09/05/13 | time.: 11:36) … Z10 liked. On acquisition, the first step will be to kill MSa new wasp from BB.
question is how MS valued paternty BB (by rookie | Date: 09/05/13 | time.: 24:23) Bo that the takeover will be completely secure. Thanks to this MS W8 comes with the phone for business, the market on which Apple has long prances …
Ballmer has good hand (by RusH | Date: 05/09/13 | time.: 12:50) to buy worthless bankrupt companies
BB is for sale (by rmarcin | Date: 05/09/13 | time.: 12:51) Everybody knows it. Apparently Ballmer has a long list of purchases than it seemed.

smashed his hopeless system (by zexel | Date: 05/09/13 | time.: 12:55) is now time to BB.
Well as you, (by zexel | Date: 09/05/13 | time.: 13:26) primitive HR.
not understand the sentence: (by TeXXaS | Date: 05/09/13 | time.: 14:08) “It’s just that Bada OS has basically non-existent and only ongoing work on Tizen, and the operating system BlackBerry OS 10 copes poorly with gaining in popularity. ” I think it should be something else – like “Opportunities for change is not, because …”. Or something like that.
As for the topic. How to buy the MS – is a shell. Probably will benefit from this as much as Nokia. Has always been the case that either is a reseller of MS products – and then is ok No, or is a partner – then it is ok, but very briefly. Someone knows a company that co-operation with MS in co-creating anything that came out on the plus side? I do not. But – IBM HPFS / NTFS and WarpOS – dipped. SyBase gave a springboard for the database MS, but the agreement was that I became a niche. Nokia?

It seems that Nokia is not the only major player mobile segment, which will be sold in the near future. According to the Wall Street Journal will most likely meet a similar fate as the Canadian BlackBerry and that’s the end of November – we do not know just why the urgency manufacturer.
recent reports that specifically delegated representative of the company has already spoken with stakeholders and compiled a list of potential buyers, and the process is expected to start as soon as possible.
One member of the board of directors of BlackBerry – Bert Nordberg (previously associated with the Sony Ericsson brand) – said it would be best if the company will be divided into smaller units, thereby partially sold, and she remains niche player. By the way, has already reached us the information producer allegedly wanted to create the service BlackBerry Messenger, a separate company.
Interestingly, the network appeared leaks, which show that Microsoft is interested in buying a BlackBerry because of the strong presence of the brand of the enterprise market.
Unfortunately, at present we do not know more details about the sale, so it is difficult to assess to what ultimately decides to move the BlackBerry.

According to information provided by the “Wall Street Journal”, BlackBerry runs from August talks with interested parties in purchasing all or part of the company . Canadians have already prepared a list of potential, and the sales process is to begin soon.
but only plans BlackBerry – there is no guarantee that they will even realize – pressure leads only to the board of the Canadian company, and financial institutions in the U.S. and Canada only consider the possibility of taking part in the whole project . Among those interested in BB exchanged for a Chinese manufacturer of smartphones and computers – Lenovo .
– If any offer or transaction is in line with the strategy Lenovo , we will use the occasion – he says enigmatically Yang Yuanquing, while refusing to comment on the BlackBerry. Sources close to the case suggest that the entire transaction will be attended by a number of parties who will spread the company into parts .

list of companies interested in buying Canadian legend struck out just Microsoft. U.S. giant announced earlier this week the acquisition of Nokia (see: Microsoft acquires Nokia) and will not be interested in buying another manufacturer of smartphones. The more that BlackBerry is still struggling to develop its own platform, though unsuccessfully – introduced to the market this year, BlackBerry smartphones and BlackBerry Z10 Q10 proved to be a market failure.
Canadian
but the company is working on restructuring, under which emits just your messenger – this will soon be available on Android, and according to the “Wall Street Journal” for its development has yet to respond subsidiary. One of the strategies for survival BlackBerry may be selling all unnecessary weight and transform itself into a small niche, the company.
easy, for now it’s just the imagination of one of the designers
message that Microsoft buys Nokia’s smartphone division (with the “know-HOWEMA”, ie patents) ran like a bolt from the blue, but everyone that in fact expected, since the boss Finnish company has been, a high-ranking employee of Microsoft – Stephen Elop (who, incidentally, was anointed as the candidate for the new head of Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer and the same). But if Bloomberg reports prove to be true, it’s not the end of Microsoft’s products.
According to the agency, the Redmond company has targeted another, agonizing legend, the BlackBerry (formerly RIM). Canadians do not know for quite some time, do not stand above all the competition from China and dropping lower and lower in the rankings of smartphone sales.
BlackBerry few weeks ago announced that is looking for alternative strategies, which can mean (though not necessarily) the sale of part of its business. Is the buyer will be Microsoft? Bloomberg’s anonymous sources say that Redmond “has his eye on” the Canadian company.
Representatives Samsung has once again denied any rumor that producer of Galaxy series smartphones would be interested in buying the BlackBerry, whose management has recently announced the formation of a special council having to consider strategic options for the company.
In one of her interviews, vice president of Samsung’s mobile division, Lee Young-hee, stated explicitly that the Korean company does not take into account the opportunity , which would be at the present time purchase of Canadian corporations. Working with BlackBerry is currently limited to the promotion of BBM messaging for the Android platform, which in the coming weeks should officially hit the Google Play, giving the opportunity to Samsung to convince users of its products to BBM, and BlackBerry – reaching out to people so far with Due to limitations run could not take advantage of this communicator.
application is designed for iOS and Android will initially offer only basic functions (text chat, file transfer, group), and this year will be extended with the ability to carry out video chats and screen sharing in real time.
Recently, there are also rumors according to which the BlackBerry would create a new subsidiary company of one another, entirely dedicated to the development and support for BBM, which in addition to hitherto supported platforms (BB7, BB10) and the platform on which you are coming soon (iOS, Android), would also zawita? on computers.
47,000 applications for BlackBerry 10 is represented by a company in Hong Kong, photo by PAP / EPA / Andy Rain
id=”article-body-wrapper”>
The number of available applications is today one of the factors that are used to talk about the success of the mobile operating system. Android and iOS does not have this problem – Google Play will find more than a million applications in the App Store – close to a million. The importance of these numbers are trying to diminish Microsoft and BlackBerry , stressing that quality counts application, not the quantity. Of course, both Windows Phone Store and BlackBerry World grow and the first will find more than 170,000, and in the second over 120,000 applications .
The only problem was that – at least in the case of BlackBerry – we can not speak of either quantity or quality . More than 47,000 applications in BlackBerry World is the work of a single developer, registered in Hong Kong’s S4BB . As noted by the BerryReview service, 20-30 common applications of this developer actually carries any value, but the overwhelming majority of the guides (for example, Gdynia), or audiobooks that are separate applications.

do not know the exact statistics on the purchase of such applications (each is paid), but we can guess that some have already earned at each other. BlackBerry reward for application developers. The early release of the application, the quality of which meets the requirements of the BlackBerry, you can even grab the $ 10,000 .

strategy developer in Hong Kong relied so, apparently, the BlackBerry World pouring tens of thousands of applications and counting on their acceptance by the moderators. As you can see, you have a very mild criteria – Canadians apparently very much wanted to increase the number of applications, without attach greater importance to their quality.
BlackBerry whole thing describes as “beauties of the free market” , indicating that smartphone users are free to decide whether an application merits attention, on the contrary. Company spokesman emphasizes again that the developers may have a problem with the stroke of the crowded stores, and BlackBerry still allows highlighting high-quality applications, even if they come from a completely unknown artists.
company that actively seeking strategic alternatives (read more) , a mess in the store is not the best solution. The more that developers complain that the time required to accept applications released for BlackBerry World is extremely long. Is testing 47,000 applications from one vendor may be the cause of this stagnation
After the announcement that the leaders BlackBerry valuing the company, the new information confirms that Canadians go through hard times. Specifically, we mean the sale of equipment, with the aim of saving the brand, but Q10 is far from meeting up to expectations.
BlackBerry OS 10 and devices such as the BlackBerry Z10, Q10 and Q5 have to rebuild the company’s position in the world of smartphones. But the efforts do not seem to be sufficient. The brand’s market share declined dramatically in recent years, so much so that she gave to overtake Microsoft is also not the best position of its Windows Phone. According to unofficial statistics, the situation appears to be irreversible.
Sales are falling
This is the result of the adoption BlackBerry Q10 on the U.S. and Canadian markets, in which for years has belonged to the former RIM, especially in the corporate sector. The Wall Street Journal published an article that contains opinions and statistical data provided by the leaders of the major operators of North America – unfortunately, the demand for BlackBerry Q10 Verizon, AT & T and Sprint is very low … Equally important are also statistics provided by the authorized dealers of the brand, but they provide similar information. As if that was not enough, a few of the high percentage of units sold is returned.
BlackBerry poptrzebuje Plan B
unofficial data aggregated market operators on the other hand. Marketing Director NextWorth, used electronics retail chain, noting that shortly after important premieres feels clear movement – the owners exchange their beloved phones with newer generation. So it has happened with previous BlackBerry models, but this time the situation is not repeated, which can be interpreted as leaving the company for up to longtime fans who have decided to switch to other platforms, mainly iOS and Android. The desperation of the company is so great that it has resorted to distribute BlackBerry Z10 of their employees at prices below the cost – up to $ 100. The same was the case Playbook . The only hope of saving the company this year is in the business market and government, where decisions are conditioned.
Is BlackBerry will have sufficient flexibility and the design of the second generation of BlackBerry devices 10 according to users’ expectations? Do you share the fate of companies like Palm? Is the brand will survive, even after the change of leadership, tactics, owners
