The report also claims that the Prime will be powered by a 1.5GHz processor, jibing with our earlier report stating the device would employ an OMAP4460 chipset.

  • Provision of resolution-agnostic experience. Good for all the guys that write codes as streamlining will be more effective.

 

This competition is just starting as mobility business is still very young. We do not know who is going to rule this market. But one thing is sure – there are going to be smaller choices because Blackberry, HP and others are being pushed out of the circle. It is evolving to become Android and iOS world.
