The crisis of the company, which was no longer little, made her bet “all his chips” in what was to be the launch and salvation of the year, if the BlackBerry Z10 .

Analysis

James Della Valle

Canadian Blackberry manufacturer, formerly known as Research in Motion (RIM), is in a delicate situation. After years of fighting for space in the smartphone market, dominated by rivals such as Samsung and Apple, the company finally confirmed last Monday, which was expected : the company should be sold. A bid in the amount of $ 4.7 billion was held by the American insurer Fairfax Financial Holdings, its largest shareholder, and can create a new growth opportunity for the Canadian company – which reported a quarterly loss of nearly $ 1 billion on Friday Friday.

Founded in 1998, the Blackberry has been known as the leading smartphone manufacturer on the planet, coming to be worth more than $ 100 billion in 2007. Despite the success in the corporate sector, the company did not have the chops to keep up with user demand for appliances in general more accessible and innovative. With the launch of the first iPhone by Apple, also in 2007, the market suffered a lurch as soon understood by companies like Samsung, LG, Nokia and Motorola.

ignore the phenomenon of touchscreens, the BlackBerry has lost market share. The company currently dominates only 2.4% of the sector, leaving behind Microsoft with 3.7% – according to data from consultancy International Data Corporation (IDC). “It’s a shame to see a company like Blackberry, which brought us phones with e-mail and other features, has been unable to respond to all these changes,” said Carolina Milanesi, analyst at Gartner.

The acquisition is expected to transform the Blackberry in a privately held company, outside the stock exchange, which should give time for a restructuring. “Certainly, it will take time to develop a new market vision with strategies to move forward,” says Fernando Belfort, leading technology division of Frost & Sullivan. For the analyst, the output is in the back to the roots, ie, investment in corporate clients. “The Blackberry has put much effort in the segment of consumer products in general, but we know that few companies can do this successfully. Focus on the business sector is what she needs to grow back. “

In the first half, the company launched two smartphone models: the Z10, the touchscreen, and Q10, with physical keyboard. Both were viewed favorably by analysts because they brought an updated version of the operating system developed by the company itself, the Blackberry 10. But the verdict of the user, who ignored devices.

losses resulting from bad decisions forced Blackberry cut 4,500 employees , or 40% of its workforce in the world. Even so, the smartphone maker has tried one more trump card, launching the Z30 model, which would compete with the iPhone 5s from Apple and Galaxy S4, Samsung. Sales of new disasters.

Despite offering excellent security solutions to corporate users, the Blackberry not able to adapt to the casual user who enjoys gaming and entertainment applications. Technical difficulties imposed by its platform developers away, avoiding the maximum spending resources to adapt their programs.

Given this scenario, the best option would be the same total dedication to the corporate segment. But if this is not possible, the company may end up being completely debt, with its technology patents disputed by the competition.

Congratulations on being in the top podcasts on iTunes! I already gave the ’6 ‘starlets

Last year I bought a kindle amazed to see a friend using. After a lot of research I decided to buy the version 3 (keyboard) because he has the option of reading aloud.

Really

he reads the texts (like it), but only in English, at least it’s something. I even tried to ‘jailbreak’ and put a voice in Portuguese, despite a tutorial video working, unfortunately I could not: S

The second thing that disappointed me was that I can not sync books between the device and the mobile and desktop applications. With books downloaded by amazom works perfectly, but the books down and placed on the intenet kindle can only be read there.

Anyway, I’m very disappointed because I expected more. I read a book today (Valley Girl) even downloaded the amazon.
Note: read the phone for the convenience of already being in hand with the device and read a little each time time job.

Hello everyone, good morning.

I was listening to the excellent TBCast when you talked about the iPhone, TouchID and American espionage, when they spoke “What Obama’s interest in what I do?”

discussion on this topic is much deeper than that, but first I would like to say that both the media and the government are paying attention to this TOO, because the truth is that everyone, if it does not, should be doing spying on your competitors and enemies. The problem is not the U.S. adopt this practice … The real problem is not Brazil be prepared to avoid that. Guilt is OURS, our ingenuity.

For ordinary people, like me, you or anyone zé apparently no interest in a government or company know of your life. But the truth is that yes there is … We are all interesting and some time or other such data may be used in some way to ensure a benefit to someone.

A company that makes any kind of trade could have their businesses affected by a competitor, if he knew his paces in advance. Imagine, for example, a Boeing know one years before on a project of a new Embraer aircraft? Or BP know about some kind of commercial partnership between Petrobras and some Middle Eastern government?

not need to go that far … Just you being a director of a company that sells orange juice … Imagine if the Chinese discover that you will sell juice to the U.S., and resolve to offer buyers the same product with lower price?

All this is in the Gmail … Yahoo Mail in Outlook … And the government can analyze this data to automatically extract information.

YES, it’s all automatic. There is a person who reads this, but the software is so good, but so good, he does manage to catalog the most important information, and direct the rightful owner.

hard, in all this, is to give the tools we love. It is undeniable that Gmail, GDocs, Dropbox, Facebook, Smartphones, and many other tools we use are excellent and are part of our day-to-day. Give them up is not easy … But we are all aware, knowing that one hour that information can actually be used for something even imagine.

To an opponent of government … then he practically glows on some electronic panel within some government building … If the guy has different political ideas of what “they” want, no problem … but if “they” think that guy can “infect” others with their ideas, and cause problems in the future, they will be able to shut the guy before he even be noticed by someone.

is paranoia? Maybe not … But who cares, right? We are there, using Gmail, Facebook and Android … Either that, or we were out of the world.

Thanks guys, great cast!
