It was announced earlier today that Apple Inc. has set an all time sales high with 21 million Ipod units sold over the third quarter for this past Holiday season. With sales of more than 3.4 billion Apple’s portable media player accounted for roughly half of all sales in that time period.
The good news for Zune fans is that retail research firm NPD Group, a company that was reasonably harsh on the Zune in its initial evaluation of prospects for it to make any inroads on the marketplace has also announced that Zune was able to snag 10.2% of all units sold in the PMD category. This news is great for Microsoft who predicted 1 million units would be sold by June 30th; the numbers place them well within striking range for that number. |

Over the past two months Microsoft has allowed many businesses to experience their new OS Windows Vista, according to an interview Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer by Bloomberg News yesterday. “We’re very excited about where we are out of the chute with Windows Vista,” Ballmer said in an interview with Bloomberg. “I expect to see uptake at a pretty good rate relative to my early expectations.” Typical of Ballmer who has be the eternal optimist regarding Vista in many interviews over the past 6 months. In one such interview where Ballmer refuted analysts’ expectations that suggest only about 20% of consumers will initially make the switch to upgrade to Vista over the first year after it’s preliminary release later this month by stating “significantly” more consumers will transition to the new OS during that time. Perhaps his optimism is good news for a somewhat stagnant PC sales marketplace which needs Vista to be an instant winner in hopes of increasing their bottom line this year. |

It’s not like you guys need all that much assistance when it comes to breaking the ice with women but ChikaZune.com has found a way to expedite the process even further “I say your picture in the dictionary today, it was under Kaboom! What’s Chika Zune? Chika (pronounced 'cheeka') for zune is what I call a collection of images with pre-printed words, questions and comments arranged into several easy to navigate directories. Simply use your zune dial button to select and send wirelessly to another zune user. Of course the other party will have to have a Zune of their own before you can communicate and it would make it easier if they also had the Chika software but it’s a great price, free! So enjoy making an aZZ out of yourself, I know a lot of guys who will. Write Comment (0 Comments) |
