Mobile computing is taking IT by storm: mobile world congress - iPad 3 announcement - Ray Ozzie interview


Without surprise it was the mobility week recently. With Mobile World 2012 just closing, this has been a week of announcements and research publications. As eWeek tries to summarize it, here are 10 hot mobile Trends to watch at Mobile World Congress 2011:
  1. Bigger is better: it seems larger display are more desirable this year
  2. Android Galore: without Apple around, Android was everywhere leaving Windows on the side for next year
  3. Microsoft needs Nokia—desperately
  4. Dual- and quad-core processors are everything
  5. Fresh new designs aren't needed? No revolutionary designs introduced.
  6. The "converged" device matters: smartphone bridging the gap with tablets
  7. There's no changing carriers: disappointed if you wanted to hear some breaking news from Carriers though customer relations are in pain.
  8. Companies think there's room for other operating systems: Mozilla announced its own mobile OS, Samsung did the same with Bada, running after Android and iOS.
  9. iPad 3 fear reigns supreme: anticipated announcement on March 7, even Google had to admit via Andy Rubin that they're behind iOS.
  10. The enterprise is an afterthought: Mobile World Congress is all about consumers. To be analyzed with CIO client strategy in the enterprise.

The announcement of the iPad HD, capturing all the buzz, is showing once again how much Apple is running the show. It looks like the entire industry is positioning itself regarding Apple and the impact of "The Barber Of Infinite Loop" on once the center of all attention Microsoft could be serious. Thus I encourage you to take a look at this Ray Ozzie interview video, the once Bill Gates visionary successor at Microsoft, who is starting a new venture and tells it very directly PC doesn't mean desktop PC anymore but Personal Computing in a variety of form factor. What a thrilling industry!
