Ever since we got used to our heavy laptops which we had to carry everywhere and work in all sorts of environment to finish our tasks, things have changed as the tablets are now in the trend which provides more features and usability than that of a smartphone and laptop.

Apple’s iPad is the most successful tablet device and is widely being used in all the countries. Although many tablets have been released, some failed to achieve the user’s attention in terms of features and looks. These days many tablets started using Android, however they weren’t able to acquire the tablet market as that of Apple’s iPad. Then Google made a good move by releasing Android’s New version 3.0 known as “Honeycomb” which was very well designed for tablets.

Samsung came up with their first Android Tablet 7” and started their tablet journey successfully until Apple came up with it’s iPad 2. Now Samsung have decided to pitch back to the tablets market share with their latest Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. Every product is developed by successful research in that market and so Samsung, who have done a proper research, came up with Galaxy Tab 10.1.

Below is an Infographic which describes the 3 successful key points behind the development of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 :

The day has come for a person who always started building than just dreaming, the person who was always known for his creativity and innovation. Yeah, you’re right I’m talking about the great Steve Jobs who began building the Apple empire since April 1,1976. Unfortunately, Jobs won’t be serving Apple as CEO any longer as he decides to resign from his post which is equally a shocker as well as unexpected.

The Wall Street Journal published a letter from Steve Jobs announcing his resignation:

PRESS RELEASE: Letter from Steve Jobs

August 24, 2011–To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community:

I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.

I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.

As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.

I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.

Although he has left Apple, he has instilled his watermarks in all the hearts of Apple fans which includes myself. So I have collected some of the best moments of Steve Jobs after he started Apple Inc.

Finally a much awaited gadgets release date is out. Just a week before Apple took a step ahead by releasing iPad 2 in Indian Market. Now get ready to experience the next versions of Galaxy Tabs.

Galaxy Tab 10.1 and 8.9 inches tablets had a release date in mid April before Apple’s iPad 2. But due to some unknown issues it got delayed by Korean Manufacturers.

Both the versions of next generation Galaxy tablets are set to hit Indian market in next month for Rs. 35,000 and Rs. 28,000 respectively.

In a recent interview for the daily newspaper Business Standard, Samsung Mobile India Head, Ranjit Yadav said,

“We will launch the 10-inch tablet PC at around Rs 35,000 and the 8-inch device will be priced around Rs 28,000. While the tablet PC market today stands at around 25,000 units a quarter, we expect it to grow exponentially here on.”

The pricing seems to be pretty decent, but it is still unclear that this pricing is for 3G version or WiFi only versions. I think, it is for the WiFi only versions, as the 3G version of original Galaxy Tab was priced at INR 38,000 at the time of launch last year.

As the time passing, day by day we are getting lot of new gadgets out in the market which are increasing the war between the manufacturers. Today we are speaking about the Application Market and Tablets war which is getting hotter day by day!

When we speak about Tablets, earlier we all used to just think about Apple’s iPad. Just in few months of time, lot of tablets emerged as Google entered with its Android OS, Windows Phone OS and lot more.

Who’s Standing Where?

Well the current market share of Mobile and Tablet OS’s is as below,

Above stats clearly shows how Google Android share is growing day by day. Google’s Android OS recently took over BlackBerry OS and now placed in third place.

Android App Store Will Take Over Apple’s iStore Soon!

The success of these Tablet OS’s and Tablet manufactures is directly depending on how many applications are getting developed and how many of them are used!

Almost all the Tablet OS developer and few Tablet Manufacturers are having their own app store for gadgets they are developing. If we name some,

• Apple App Store
• BlackBerry App World
• Google Android Market
• Nokia Ovi Store
• Windows Phone 7 Marketplace
• Palm App Catalog
• GetJar and others.

Distimo a publication company in US mainly covers the all the latest happening around these app stores. Distimo’s recent publication cleared said Google’s Android Market will top the app market by throwing Apple App Stores aside in terms of number of applications.

Here are the 4 major finding about app market,

• The Google Android Market eclipsed the Apple App Store for iPhone in terms of free applications and now has 134,342 free applications, while the Apple App Store iPhone has 121,845 free applications.
• If all application stores maintain their current growth pace, approximately five months from now Google Android Market will be the largest store in terms of number of applications followed by the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad, Windows Phone 7 Marketplace, BlackBerry App World and Nokia Ovi Store. The Windows Phone 7 Marketplace will also be larger than the Nokia Ovi Store and BlackBerry App World prior to the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace being available for even a full year.
• One year after launching the iPad, Apple will be confronted with its first serious competition as both BlackBerry and Google enter the emerging tablet market. Apple has already seized momentum and grown the App Store for iPad in the first year to 75,755 applications developed by 21,975 publishers. Daily downloads in the Top 100 Overall paid and free applications for iPad combined exceed 500,000, while the daily revenue in the Top 100 paid is approximately $400,000 excluding in-app purchases.
• Many of the top publishers on the iPad already publish cross-platform. Fifty-eight percent of the 50 most popular publishers have already developed applications for non-Apple platforms.

These top four finding by Distimo publishers clearly shows how application market is going to change in next few months.

Google’s Android never lost its momentum and kept its graph growing steadily. Battle is on and it’s actually a wake-up call for Apple, BlackBerry and Windows teams to start getting as many good apps as possible.

What you guys feel about this prediction? Is Android Market the best application market? Please do share your thoughts
