What happened to the Blackberry?

The Blackberry, the pride of Canada, is not so popular as it was in the olden days. Apple and Google seem to have taken everything from them. Their customers and money and loving fans. Look at it this way, RIM has lost almost everything and is not even a good seller of phones compared to Microsoft. People only buy it because of BBM, which in my opinion is weird, but now it's on iOS and Android, so RIM wake up!

RIM seems to have a failure already before it started. RIM's Playbook looks like garbage the moment I saw it. RIM must really want to be the pioneer of innovation, because it's OS has a long way to go. RIM is what you call a "late goer". RIM is like the guy who's last invited to the party. RIM is dying in my opinion, a company struggling to survive and find ways to buy its products even though it can't. iPad and it's competitors are still better than the Playbook. It also has low apps and not the best specs you could wish for.

RIM has just lost its game.

My Review of Blogger

Blogger is a blog posting site. You post stuff that's on your mind and you post it on the web which is very simple. It is simple and it is easy sometimes. Here is my true review non-bias review of blogger which I have been using for a while to know some of the gizmo's. Blogger is not perfect, but I believe it's okay for a free service in my opinion.

Blogger is not simple, it' like MS Word. Blogger's blog format is easy and simple to use sometimes. What I want to see done is to make it more user controlled rather than automated. Sometimes when I upload a photo it may glitch or something bad may happen. The worst thing that could happen is the whole thing just ruining my text and making me redoing the post. I did a post the other day and Blogger just wasted my time.

Blogger doesn't make my pictures the way I want it to be. Sometimes I would like the text in between text and it doesn't happen. Instead it puts it at the top where the size doesn't match and it just looks plain ugly. A good example is my Blackberry Playbook post where pictures didn't turn out to be ideal. Sorry my audience. Things don't always go out as planned so I'm looking for more services.

I hope a Blogger technician will read this and try to help. I hope you can get YouTube Integration smooth soon so it'll be easier,but that is all. I'm Out.

Does the iPad Now Have A Competitor From RIM?

RIM has just recently announced their newest competitor to the Apple iPad, the Playbook. The Playbook is just what RIM needs to catch on to the tablet hype, but will it take away Apple's loyalty base as many people already own an iPad and are planning on buying iPad 2. So far this has met all I have been asking for that has been missing in the iPad which includes a 2 cameras and an HDMI dock and more.

Specs:

• 7-inch LCD, 1024 x 600, WSVGA, capacitive touch screen with full multi-touch and gesture support
• BlackBerry Tablet OS with support for symmetric multiprocessing
• 1 GHz dual-core processor
• 1 GB RAM
• Dual HD cameras (3 MP front facing, 5 MP rear facing), supports 1080p HD video recording
• Video playback: 1080p HD Video, H.264, MPEG, DivX, WMV
• Audio playback: MP3, AAC, WMA
• HDMI video output
• Wi-Fi - 802.11 a/b/g/n
• Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
• Connectors: microHDMI, microUSB, charging contacts
• Open, flexible application platform with support for WebKit/HTML-5, Adobe Flash Player 10.1, Adobe Mobile AIR, Adobe Reader, POSIX, OpenGL, Java
• Ultra thin and portable:
• Measures 5.1"x7.6"x0.4" (130mm x 193mm x 10mm)
• Weighs less than a pound (approximately 0.9 lb or 400g)
• RIM intends to also offer 3G and 4G models in the future.

So if you look at this, it makes the Apple iPad look like last year and a ripoff for it's price as the iPad is the same as the Playbook, but lacking things like Adobe Flash which is something Android and RIM have embraced, but Apple has shunned even though a lot of sites use Flash. Not only that it has the same specs as the iPad practically, as I call this the iPad clone we've been waiting for, for us in the tech world. RIM has surprised me in this way and I will be definitely be looking at this for the near future as this sounds irresistible just like the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab.

RIM's new attempt at trying to get the iPad off the popularity block is a good shot. I think I will buy this tablet as it has everything I want. The only con to me is that it isn't running Android, other than that I would buy it with my hearts content. RIM is doing the right thing and I think because of this Apple will put a little more spunk into the iPad for the price or it;s going to lose it's loyal customers big time.

RIM has attacked the tablet market with features, the only thing I think RIM will try best is the price.
