Since November 2011, rumors of intent have been circulatingIn addition to Kindle Fire tablets, Amazon also produces its own smartphones. According to a number of sources, the "smart phone" from a well-known online store is allegedly already being tested. The press service of the company does not officially confirm this information. However, and does not deny.
Amazon plans to release its own smartphonereported the agency Bloomberg. It also named the manufacturer of the future gadget - Foxconn International Holdings. At the same time, it was emphasized that Foxconn is a well-known collector of popular mobile phones, among them - Apple iPhone. It was also reported that Amazon is buying a package of patents for important wireless data transmission technologies. In addition, it became known about the "purchase" of an online store developer 3D maps UpNext, which, according to experts, it is much more convenient to use in "smart phones", not in tablets. Finally, the network began to write that a sample smartphone Amazon is already ready and is undergoing beta testing. The leakage of information allegedly originated from the suppliers of electronic components for the future model. According to their information, the new smartphone is a kind of a small copy of the Kindle Fire tablet. The device is based on Android OS. The display diagonal is about 4-5 inches. More detailed specifications of these anonymous sources have not been reported. The gadget is expected to be mass-produced and sold in late 2012 or early 2013. Analysts assume that its retail price, as in the case with the tablet, will not be higher, or even lower than the cost price, and will be only $ 150-170. And the producer company will continue to receive profit from the sale of content for the device - music, movies, e-books, etc. It is reasonable to assume that in connection with this, the factory firmware of the smartphone will not do without a number of locks, so that users could not download content, distributed by direct competitors Amazon. At least in the US. Russians when buying gadgets should also take into account the availability of nearby wireless Internet networks. Without them to use the cloud storage of an American retailer will be very problematic. However, it is too early to plan the purchase of an Amazon smartphone for residents of any country. So far, only the rumors of the acquisition of patents have been confirmed, and indirectly, Matt Gordon moved to work in Amazon. At Intellectual Ventures Management LLC, he held the position of director of acquisitions, and in the company Amazon, apparently, will be responsible for investment and development of the patent portfolio. But if you consider that Amazon is involved in several major intellectual property issues, such a strengthening of positions seems logical. Taiwanese company Foxconn and so actively cooperates with Amazon - it assembles not only mobile phones, but also Kindle Fire tablets. Mark Zuckerberg has already denied the information about the creation of "facebook", rumors about which also spread Bloomberg agency. It is not excluded that Amazon will also consider competition with the iPhone and Samsung Galaxy to be unprofitable and focus on improving its tablet - hence all patent acquisitions. By the way, they say that Kindle Fire 2 will go on sale in August 2012.
Tip 5: Why Facebook's popularity has declined
Social networks are quite firmly ineveryday life. The leading global social services for several years now is Facebook. However, recent studies of the American Internet space have shown that it begins to lose popularity.
The latest data of the American indexcustomer satisfaction (ACSI) show that Facebook scored 61 points, and Google+ - 78 points on a par with Wikipedia. Thus, the Facebook customer satisfaction index fell by 7.6%, while receiving low ratings in the "e-business" section. With this, the social network from Google was launched last year, and the majority of users are forced to use Facebook because of the fact that her audience is more than three times. Google+ in the battle for users is constantly introducing new features. Of the latest innovations are known: support for Google Maps, YouTube video service, Google + graph algorithm combining different social networks through user data. According to Google+ experts, it succeeds in the user interface, and Facebook in penetration of the market. In this case, a large number of advertisements in Mark Zuckerberg's network and a new display of the TimeLine profile cause discontent among users. Google+ declined the advertising model. And this gives an audience increase of almost 30% every month, against a decline of Facebook by 15%. CNN quotes the user: "I'm sure that many people use Facebook because they sincerely love it. But many also use the network because they have to: their friends have accounts there or they need a business presence on the network. Perhaps these Facebook users do not really like it, and they have something to complain about. "CHARLES FORNELL ACSI chairman says that e-business must respond to users' expectations, needs and loyalties. Users should have a choice, it makes a lot of sense for financial activity. So, Facebook should pay attention to strong competition from Google+, so as not to lose the leading position. Overall, social media received 69 points on the ACSI index, losing 1.4%.
