HP Goes Through Metamorphosis – Exiting PC And Tablet Business To Focus on Software, Servers And Services

0

Hewlett-Packard or HP is going through a period of metamorphosis by radically restructuring its business.  On Thursday, the company said that it is looking to spin off its industry-leading but struggling PC, and the TouchPad tablet businesses. It launched its TouchPad last month with heavy advertising, but it was obvious that it failed to generate a lot of buzz and revenue. The webOS smartphone line is also going through the hatchet.  HP bought the webOS when it acquired Palm few months ago. According to CNN Money,

 

[t]he move essentially leaves for dead the webOS software HP got by acquiring Palm last year, though the company said it will continue trying to “optimize the value” of its purchase. Though the move was unexpected, it’s not all that surprising: Despite a huge marketing campaign, TouchPad sales struggled so much that HP almost immediately cut the tablet’s price by $100. HP said none of its webOS products reached the company’s internal sales targets.

 

Meanwhile, HP  is going to buy British software developer Autonomy, a specialist in database search and other enterprise software technologies., for roughly $10.2 billion in cash. This translates to $42.11 per share, giving a 58% premium over the company’s average share price over the past month.

 

Ideally, PC is working hard to remake the company by moving from PC and the highly competitive tablet business which they tried to copy Apple into software, servers and corporate services. Yet, it is important to know that why the tablet was a huge disappointment,  PC business generates about 33% of the company’s revenue.

 

There are many things that do not fall in place here. HP wants to yank up a business that gives it 1/3rd of its revenue. It is buying a new company at 58% premium of its value. It is exiting from a business it just spent millions acquiring few months ago. All these may show that HP does not have strategic vision and could be suffering to define how it wants to take on IBM, Oracle and Apple as the competition continues to heat. There seems to be many things going on at the same time and they do not look well. But time will tell.

 

We Have Logo For Tekedia Broad Industrial Average (TBIA) – An Index Of Nigerian Stock Exchange

0

The Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE), established in 1960, has about 300 listed companies (283 companies as at March 9, 2007) with all listings included in only one index, the Nigerian Stock Exchange All Shares Index. The goal of TBIA is to use twenty stocks to represent the market dynamics and simplify things for analysts, economists, policy makers, investors, among others.

 Tekedia Broad Industrial Average (TBIA) is a stock market index created by Tekedia Intelligence, a division of Fasmicro. It is an index that shows how twenty large, publicly owned companies, based in Nigeria have traded during a standard trading session in the stock market. To emphasis that this index is not restricted to any particular industry such as technology, transportation or banking, we included the word “Broad”. The word, “industrial”, was used within the constructs of different markets. For example, we have the banking industry, hotel and tourism industry, and so one with no implied connotation to the industrial era. We understand that many of the companies in the index are knowledge driven, yet, they operate in an industry.

Symbian Anna’s Update Announced For N8, E7, C7, C6 Nokia Smartphones

1

The days are fixed for the shipping and update release of Symbian^3 Anna software from Nokia. This is largely for the current devices, including the Nokia N8, E7, C7, and C6 smartphones. Nokia has since discontinued shipment of new Symbian driven devices in some countries, including U.S. They are merely supporting already products in the market.

 

While the software is pre-loaded on newer devices that have just begun to ship–like the Nokia X7 and Nokia E6–current flagships have to wait for Anna to hit. The N8, E7, C7, and C6 will officially ship with Anna pre-loaded out of the box in July, according to Nokia, and current owners who have bought devices without Anna will have to wait until the end of August for a software update to roll out.

 

Symbian Anna brings a new visual look to the operating system with new bubbly icons, which are reminiscent of Samsung’s TouchWiz icons. Additionally, beyond the skinning, there are also a number of new improvements to Anna, including a portrait-oriented full QWERTY keyboard, better browser, updates to Ovi Maps, and a new social messaging client:

One of the most anticipated enhancements in Symbian Anna is split screen view while typing, so users can see their message thread. There is also virtual portrait QWERTY for quick, one handed typing. And the web browser is faster and easier to use, delivering quicker page loads and improved navigation.

 

Ovi Maps has been refreshed with simpler and quicker search, new public transportation routes and check-in to Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare or local social networks. You can also share places via email and SMS, even with friends using non-Nokia phones.

 

Business users will benefit from instant messaging with Microsoft Communicator Mobile, email enhancements including full meeting request support, and true business grade security with hardware accelerated encryption. There is also easy and secure intranet access for people who want to get on their company intranet.

 

Though Nokia will be shifting to Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 platform as its mainstream platform of choice for mobile, the company is still dedicated to Symbian and will be releasing up to 10 new Symbian devices in the next 12 months.

The Race For Developer Mindshare, Key Facts From Developer Economics

0

The race for developer mindshare is just starting and many players are juggling to get the minds of the developers. Who will win? Apple or Google or even Microsoft. There is this consensus that the best days of Blackberry are behind it.
So, in a new report (actually June 2011), Developer Economics notes these facts after extensive study, interviews and market research:
  • Use of mobile web accelerates. The last year has seen many twists and turns in the race of mobile platforms to capture developer mindshare. Mobile web as a platform has seen an impressive upturn in usage, and is now in third position in our Developer Mindshare Index. Android and iOS continue to lead with 67% of developers currently using Android and 59% using iOS.
  •  Windows is not yet the third horse in the three-horse mobile race. Use of  Windows Mobile has dropped among developers in the last year, while Windows Phoneis not yet seen by developers as a commercially viable platform. Yet Windows Phone 7has managed to establish itself in the number two spot after Android in our DeveloperIntentshare Index, among platforms where developers plan to invest. Microsoft’sadvantage comes from the influx of PC and Xbox developers, Microsoft’s best-in-classtools and the promise of a substantial user base with the Nokia deal.
  •  Symbian, Java abandoned: Symbian and Java ME are the two platforms with thehighest developer abandonment rates; nearly 40% of developers currently usingSymbian and 35% of developers currently using Java ME are planning to drop theplatforms. Java ME is suffering from negative hype despite having been embedded onmore than three billion handsets. Symbian is now officially a platform with an expiry date, with the Nokia Symbian handset line-up set to be discontinued.
  •  Experimentation on the rise: Developers are increasingly experimenting with more and more platforms and transitioning to new ones. Developers use on average 3.2platforms concurrently based on our sample of 850+ online respondents, representing a 15% increase from last year’s figure.
